Hey All,
Been a while since I've been out here. I got some new tires, so thought I would update my Burb pictures. Can't find the old post, so here is a new one.

Well, re-welcome back! Very nice burb, I like the interior...well done. I have wondered what one would look like with an updated interior, thinking about the same for my 71 GMC burb. Thanks for the pics.

Thats not a burb, it's a school bus.

thats alot of seating.

What type of seats did you use. Front/ Middle and rear????

BTW that is a really nice and clean burb you got there. Congrats.

I've been wondering what the silverado seats would look like in one, now I know. Sure saves the hassle with 3 point seat belts!! How easy did they go in? I'd like to put them in both front and rear and be done with the belt issue altogether.

The front seats are 2001 Tahoe, in the front, and 2004 Chevy Venture van seats for the rest. The front seat wasn't too bad to install. I was able to use a couple of the original holes, but had to drill the rest. The worst part was the middle seat brackets. They are made to overlap the two side seat brackets, but they were too wide in the original configuration. So I had to 'convince' the brackets that they wanted to move in a little.

I'm about the worst 'fabricator' you'd ever want to meet, and I got them in, so somebody with a little talent ought to have a much easier time.
