Just so you don't keep looking forever, BB and 4 wheel drive didn't come together from the factory in 67-72 (in anything, not just 'burbs). If you find a BB four wheel drive, it has either been converted to a big block, or converted from two wheel drive.

Finally got mine home and took a pic

BB and 4x4 in a Burb was not available till the 90's. You could get a BB nd 4x4 in a truck around 77 when the D60 front started being used.

71Subman · 01-13-2004, 10:24 PM

You've seen the old, or at least I posted pictures here somewhere, now the upgrades are (nearly) complete!! First pic is the new front seats, dash pad and steering wheel. Woohoo!!

71Subman · 01-13-2004, 10:29 PM

Pic 2 is the middle row of seats

71Subman · 01-13-2004, 10:30 PM

Pic 3 is the 'third row'

71Subman · 01-13-2004, 10:31 PM

NICE!

what are the seat out of?

71Subman · 01-14-2004, 01:54 PM

The front seats are from a 2001 Tahoe. The rear seats are from a 2002 Chevy Venture mini-van.

Hmmm I'll have to look for the venture van. I like those and I'll need some seats soon if I get this burb I got my eye on.
Thanks for the quick reply.

71Subman · 01-14-2004, 02:08 PM

I got the seats on ebay, from a van conversion place in Indiana...$40 each and shipping for 5 was $150. I can get the name of the company, if you're interested.

cojnit · 01-14-2004, 03:21 PM

I want all seat info!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Those look great

useRc10 · 01-14-2004, 03:48 PM

does the middle seat fold so you can get to the back seat?

carterb · 01-14-2004, 04:22 PM

We drove ours down to my parents over Christmas. Here it is ('72) next to my dad's '70 3/4 ton lb. Now I just need to make mine as shinny as his...

I got the rear seats from Designer Seat Works, in Tempe, AZ (not Indiana, oops) They have a web site at www.seatworks.com. They have a lot of 'take outs' from van and truck conversions. Pretty good guys to work with. The front seat I got on e-bay. There are lots of seat options out on e-bay.

Actually, all of the rear seats fold like the middle one. There is enough room to step up, next to the seat near the door, so that if it is folded down it's an easy leg swing to get in back...especially for kids...or you can crawl over any of them. :-)
