Re: 62 Burb project in the making.

Been a while since I did an update on what has been done, not a lot but every bit helps. New rocker covers makes it a bit more period correct.

Did the front sway bar from POL. I would think when they make a year specific 60-62 they might have made it so the original "extra holes" from shock placement would be able to be used. I understand that it is nice with the closer to the wheel and all that but when it is there already?

Did the wide band sensor as well.
Makes it a bit easier to see where I'm at on the carb adjustments.

Re: 62 Burb project in the making.

Getting a bit closer to finishing up the stereo I had done by Gary Tayman.com Excellent work on the restoration of the original 62 AM radio to a modern system. Now just have to try and remember all the combinations for the controls and clean up the wiring.

Re: 62 Burb project in the making.

Got a bit more done. just been driving the heck out of it, not really doing much.
Got the instrument panel in with the new tach and clockworks great.
Got plans on a 327 for a winter project needs a bit more torque than the 283 to pull the OD on the 5 speed.
