Curious to know where you ordered your stock exhaust parts from. Thanks.

Thanks for the info, he didn't mention anything about cutting the pipes in half, I will have to wait and see.

Nice score on the deluxe wheel and the roof looks like it came out real nice for you.

Re: LT1 Burbs 65 Stock SW Build

the frame looks awesome. nice work on the roof and i bet the insulation will be well worth all the effort. getting close to color which is a huge motivator.

keep rocking-on...

Question Re: LT1 Burbs 65 Stock SW Build

Did your build come with A/C from the factory? I noticed the hole cut in the firewall just above the square heater box hole (like attached) where my 66' GMC heater box has a special flap for the fresh air to bypass the heater core to go to the A/C unit inside. Mine came with a Frigidaire compressor as well. I may be a little too new to this but this is the first time I have seen another with the same heater box and firewall hole. jon

Re: LT1 Burbs 65 Stock SW Build

Yeah, mine was factory air, looks like yours may have been dealer installed just because of the way it is cutout but it is correct for factory air.

Re: LT1 Burbs 65 Stock SW Build

That's the right under dash unit but those bezels have been added. Your truck should not have an ashtray, it should be a larger opening for the plastic AC vents.

It never had the in-dash vents, the ash tray is in the usual spot...the controls were mounted just under the radio. I guess it was a dealer hack job or GM kit.

Just found this thread.
Now I know why you could sell your Burb, you have another one.
Your truck is looking good and good luck with your Back.

Thanks, if I didn't sell my Burb I would have torn it apart and redone it. I just love the look of starting with a fresh powder coated frame and building from there.

Re: LT1 Burbs 65 Stock SW Build

Just read through your build, really looking great! It seems like every build thread includes a cnotch kit now, so it sure is nice to see one that is just nicely restored every once in awhile...

I had one question as I was reading through...It seems that you are using Por-15 on a couple of panels prior to being welded together. Does this affect the weld or burn off or do you grind it clean where you are going to weld??

Re: LT1 Burbs 65 Stock SW Build

Sorry I never answered, took me forever to find my thread. The frame is powder coated and where I painted POR15 I ground it down before welding as it is hard to weld over, for me anyways. I had to make a contraption to get the cab higher.
