Re: 66 suburban aka the sub

Thanks bud.. Just trying to get little done everyday.. The cold weather and work wasn't any help in motivating me.. But--I decided that I can't let it hold me back.. Just moving a little at a time.. Mind me asking--what'd that job on your interior cost approx.??

Re: 66 suburban aka the sub

hi hemi, complete headliner made of sued, with bows ,complete two piece carpet from front to back,front and back seat with rebuilt springs and all new foam and hard backs due to dents on the rear metal parts of the seats,and he carpeted the area from the carpet to the top of the firewall inside so when you look under the dash its covered better than the pad they sell,he has done alot of my cars over the years 2000.00 and he made sued visors also

Re: 66 suburban aka the sub

Details, Details, its all in the Details. You Nailed it....The Burb is sweet. Your painter did a Fantastic job. Inside outside under the hood... it will be a dream to drive. What are your plans for the gauge cluster? X2 on the Coys they look just right.

They usually start showing up by 7am... It's been a little cold here the last coulple Sundays, but when it gets hot in the summer I can understand the early arrival... Let me know when you go and I'll look for the Burb or the green 69...

Are you behind Lone Mountain?

Re: 66 suburban aka the sub

Also rebuilt all the rear slider windows,precision seals fit really nice,believe me silicon spray will be your best friend AND your fingers and hands will hurt but over all not a bad job,also used crl felt channels and felts they all come in 8 ft sections and fit excellent.4 slider windows overall really not to bad had to weld up the front two slider botton runs they had rust,back two were perfect
