72 "The Blue Burb of Happiness" Project

This is my project dubbed by my wife as "The Blue Burb of Happiness". I started with a pretty good piece. P.O. had done a frame off resto of the body with paint. Suspension was lowered 4" front and rear with new disc brakes front.

He decided he didn't like the 8 lug spindles on the 3/4 ton and changed the rear end to a 1969 with 6 lug. An issue with spacing since the 69 rear is narrower.

I plan to update the interior, change the wheels, rechrome the bumpers and clean-up the engine compartment. The AC needs attention as well. P.O. took out the rear air unit. I found a replacment on ebay and will match up with a vintage air kit for the front.
