, (thanks Nathan). I will going back to FL at the end of the month for a week. If everything goes as planned it will all be in red paint and then we will paint all the white when I move back in August.......in the meantime, I'm playing with this.....http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=343684

Even though I picked up a new truck while back in FL, I didn't totally neglect the suburban. We almost got everything painted red, but ran into a small paint problem. Hopefully by the end of the week everything will be red and the roof will be white......Here's a few pictures of my 68 SWB I picked up and some of the suburban progress.

Thanks! It's an early retirement present....

. I haven't made any videos yet or got to silly with it since the suspension was heated to get it lower. Once I get that and a few other things corrected, I will take it to the track to see what it can do.....

Yeah, it's the one from Ebay. I'm VERY happy with it. I just plan on a few upgrades, new drop coils, shock relocator, adjustable pan hard bar, take the tank and battery out of the bed, put the shifter back on the column, hook up the power steering.......just some stuff to make it more driver friendly. We just had a problem getting the paint matched. We finally got it figured out, but it cost us a couple of days.

It's not supercharged, it's just got a bad alternator bearing,

Burb is looking great

pcmcobra · 06-10-2009, 07:49 PM

I would recommend the TT II's over the polished Coys. The Coy's finish isn't that great. Your 'burb really needs a nice set of Billet Specialties wheels!
I wish I had your body man in my area.
Very NICE work.

NPilot1975 · 06-11-2009, 12:05 PM

Rob,

Nice truck! I might be able to help you out with the lowered coils. Once I get my truck on the other chassis, I am not going to need the 4/6 drop coils. Rear suspension is almost done and front should be bolt in, thanx Porter.

Thanks Jamison. When you coming over to take a look? Do I have to hold your parts for ransom?

Let me know about the lowering coils.

I'll probably end up going with TTII's, I just haven't quite decided yet.... Load it up on a trailer and bring it down, I'm going to need a job in about 6 months.....
