Just curious if you are running Vintage air setup? When are you going to start on that install? I want to see how you do it. Also, are you going to run a rear air? You think a single air setup will cool all that area? Keep up the good work!
I'm going to run the Vintage Air Gen IV. I'll start that install after I finish most of the wiring. No rear, just the front. I think with tinted windows and all the insulation that I'm going to put in, it should be fine.

I also have a Vintage air setup in my 70 Suburban. I built a console that runs from the front to the second row seats. I ducted two vents in the second row and one under the second row to cool the third row. (in addition to the vents on each side of the dash, and the one in the front center of the console) It works decent, but I wish it had a bit more output overall. I think creating 6 vent outlets stretches the capability of the kit.

Some progress, nothing earth shattering, but the front end is starting to come together. Pics of course, .

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)

Just curious if I've missed something you might have posted earlier but where is the little 1/4 window dividers in the 2nd row windows? Have you managed to eliminate them & do 1 pieces?

Sweet lookin & I AM jealous but it's really because my 72 Burb is such crap compared. Got a ton of rust in mine. REALLY like some of the cool mods you did along the way. The trim scheme is really going to look sharp & fool a lot of people who just don't know those details about these old trucks. You're secretly going to sit back & listen to people argue whether some of it could be ordered that way from the factory, aren't you??

GREAT WORK!!

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)

I like that sooo much.....I have looked at 60's to early 70's wagons as a possibility....but I think I may have to make one of these my next project.

, I'm sure I'll get to hear "My uncle/dad/grandpa owned one just like that" a hundred times. Thanks for the props. I haven't installed the side windows yet, but they will be there when I do.

Thanks! The Power Tour is my goal. After the first of the year I will start making some more progress.....

Thanks Darren. 2 moves, retirement, a couple of job changes and life in general can sometimes drag these projects out. I used to burn the candle at both ends when I started projects like these. Now I learn to appreciate small steps forward and take comfort in knowing that even if it takes a couple of more years to finish the Burb, it be built the way I want it. Take care.

I have collected a few more parts, and hopefully will be able to start putting them on.

Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year to all!
