Nice gesture. That's what makes this board such a great place to hang out.....

I would say you got pretty lucky on the rear hatch rust.... Just keep plugging away at it.
Thanks Leon…it was a struggle for them, but hopefully this will help plant their feet on solid ground!

Re: The more I learn...the more puzzled I become!

I met Bryce (member BAD1916) today to retrieve the rear hatch glass that formerly resided in his 1971 GMC Suburban (factory Big Block vehicle). Very cool guy…I really appreciate the gift!

I requested a little tour around his Burb and was excited to see the Big Block under the hood!

This is a really clean piece of glass and the green Soft-Ray tint matches mine perfectly!

It was great meeting you and your wife this morning. Glad to see that window go to a cool Suburban and that it will make your life a little easier on clean up.

So cool, nice to see the camaraderie!

Also, nice suburban shirt! Where did you get it from?

I know Nick…It’s great getting reminders of how this group helps each other. I myself, hope to be able to contribute in this way too someday!

As for the “Suburban Shirt”…I attended the C/10 Nationals in Fort Worth, TX last year, and this was the only 3 door Suburban related item I saw at the entire show (out of the thousands of vehicles, not even one 3 door in attendance!). My wife spotted this vendor who had a huge display showing silhouettes of just about every popular vehicle you can think of…and had not only the 71/72 versions of burbs, but the 67/68 and 69/70 versions as well! Unfortunately, I dropped the ball and did not get the vendors contact information…so if anyone knows the guy I’m talking about, please post his company’s name for us!!!

I hope your project is moving along better than mine, Nick!

Re: The more I learn...the more puzzled I become!

Hey to all…it has been pointed out to me that I have two separate threads that could benefit from being consolidated into one. Not being a whizz-kid when it comes to computer stuff, I decided to just stop using this one (by now, everyone knows just how “puzzled” I am!) and only make new posts on my “Slow Progress is Better than No Progress” thread.

Today, I will be posting about my ongoing “SLOW” progress with my rear hatch…and boy, did I get a surprise!
