Body mounts were off ... But Mo's took care of it ...now they need to work on trans and shaft tunnel it was a low and now needs to be cut and slightly modified so the yoke is clear and then get a "single" drive shaft made for it

Burb · 12-01-2018, 08:26 PM

All settled in place but need some clearence Doug said he will make it a high hump and add just a little height to the stock raised portion down center

Burb · 12-01-2018, 08:30 PM

Body and chassis seem very tight now and once the rear wood is installed the body movement thanks to the poly will be zero

Burb · 12-14-2018, 03:51 PM

Made one of the many big decisions on the project ... The Wheels
Going to run 20" all the way around and have chosen a BOZE wheel called "Traction" for the front and "Traction Concave" for the rear, now I need to decide on whether to color match or leave polished

Burb · 01-17-2019, 07:31 PM

can't wait to get the 20" wheels on to see the stance better

14" wheels aren't doing it for me

Burb · 01-24-2019, 11:09 AM

A Fresh slate ... with the wheels, smooth bumpers, mirrors and grille modes applied...

Burb · 01-24-2019, 11:15 AM

Well it is time to get my ideas and vision visible for the build

And I have happened across a fantastic digital rendering specialist that I am sure has been used by others on this site ... considering his work

Give him your ideas and he quotes you off of that ...simple.

Burb · 01-24-2019, 11:16 AM

bit by bit ...

**Advanced Design** · 01-25-2019, 12:00 AM

A good direction you are taking the Burb. Will look sweet!

Burb · 01-25-2019, 04:11 PM

Okay ... here is the final vision of a mad man ... this is what we are aiming for

**Advanced Design** · 01-25-2019, 11:13 PM

Just let me wipe the suburban drool from my chin...

Thanks ... I know that the wheels can make or break a good vehicle so it took some time considering I haven't seen many suburbans with these style wheels to compare

**Ol Blue K20** · 01-26-2019, 11:15 AM

Looks great

Average Joe · 01-26-2019, 03:30 PM

Noice!!!!

Burb · 01-27-2019, 08:43 PM

Now I need to find someone that does interior renderings, because, sad to say, Chad does not.

Burb · 02-04-2019, 01:11 PM

Okay, ... here is the final mockup of my ideas for the Nav and A/C

meh..its been in my driveway halfway covered for the last 4 or 5 years

good thing is im getting the itch again...

gonna strip the dash back down and paint it black since i left a rag with brake fluid on it and it ate up the paint lol

but also plan on pulling the carb..getting a holley and making my own exhaust that way i can at least drive it around some. once i get that stuff done ill be moving on to making the rear floor and finishing up the seats.

WannaBe68 · 02-14-2019, 10:06 AM

What an awesome vision!
Hope y'all can nail that stance, because in the rendering it's perfect!

Me too ... that is ride height

Figured I would get back with Chad to give me a dropped or more dropped raked version as well.

It is getting a Accuair so it will have 3 height settings plus parked and and down.

Burb · 07-03-2019, 04:38 PM

I finally broke down ordered it ...
