Traded Step for Sub! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

BK · 02-27-2007, 09:09 PM

So, driving home last night, i see this 60-63 2wd suburban at Papa Murpheys, so i decide to stop by and check it out. I talk to the guy, and turns out he says he has a panel for sale. Well, i go today, and its a suburban. But, i put the step up for trade, and he wants it, so we trade. This weekend we will be trading. Its a 64-66 orange and white sub. It has no fenders, hood, or driver door on it, yet i am getting them from him. Here are the pics!

you traded a running truck for that?looks like alot of work good luck have fun.keep us in pics.

*72CSTC5* · 02-27-2007, 09:20 PM

Does the chia pet in the left quarter glass come with it? LOL!! Looks pretty solid and with the ft windshield out you didnt have to worry about rust.

19GMC63 · 02-27-2007, 09:43 PM

thats definitely an interesting trade, but it will be awesome with a 6" chop.

Show us some pics after you put on the body panels and get it pressure washed.

**slepysal** · 02-27-2007, 10:14 PM

You sound like you made a good deal, and thats all that matters. Let no one take that away. I and Im sure others can see a "finished" project in what others cant. I agree keep the progress pics comming !
For what it is worth, I have always liked the old "burbs., and yea it will take some, ok ok lots of work, but thats the fun of it , the before and after .

63sbssbbw · 02-27-2007, 10:47 PM

I see you have a shot of a 60-63 carryall(I Think).For parts? comes with the deal?
Cool stuff

BK · 02-27-2007, 11:13 PM

no, hes going to get that going again. he just wants the barn doors, and i want clam shells anyway.

64shortc10 · 02-27-2007, 11:28 PM

Do you have any pics of the step side you traded? Also I'm in Norcal not to far from Oregon, did you see any short fleetside beds while you were looking at the sub? I stiil miss my sub!

BK · 02-27-2007, 11:36 PM

http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=227703 there are some pics of the old truck there. no fleet beds. more pics of your sub PLEASE!!!

64shortc10 · 02-27-2007, 11:55 PM

Thats the only pic I still have in my computer. I wish I would have known about this site sooner. I was trying to get rid of my sub locally and no one wanted it in peices. So I sawzalled it up an threw it away, I would have gave it to you. Minus all the good stuff I spent money on! Oh well I got a short bed 64 now and everything will bolt on that. Sorry to hear about your panel getting burned. I keep seeing a 64-66 panel with a 6" chop for sale on the Sac craigslist but they want like $4,000.00 way to much! Keep an eye out for a short bed fleet for me! The only things I have left from my sub is the rear tailgate-hatch, back window, and the front seat. I already promised the tailgate- hatch-glass to Nathan at PorterBuilt.

layinrocker65 · 02-28-2007, 12:15 AM

good trade, not a fan of steps

Frizzle Fry · 02-28-2007, 02:23 AM

I would have made the same trade for sure.

BK · 02-28-2007, 02:33 AM

frizzle - thats cause you already have a step!

Frizzle Fry · 02-28-2007, 05:53 PM

hah! and because I LOVE the Burbs

BK · 03-02-2007, 04:33 PM

big day is tomorrow! i get to pick up the suburban!!! although, i have to wait 2 more weeks for my frame, the trip got postponed. Anyway, new pics up tomorrow hopefully!

leftcoast66 · 03-02-2007, 08:33 PM

Awesome trade. There's a sub at the local junkyard that everytime I'm there I gota go look at and I want one so bad... Unfortunately lack of space and my c10 plus other project get in the way.

BK · 03-02-2007, 09:20 PM

where is covington, in relation to me, in portland? i may need a 64-66 driver door for the sub.

chevytrucknut · 03-02-2007, 11:51 PM

I've got an extra passenger side door if you need and I saw a suburban and a short fleet at a wrecking yard in Oregon near Cottage Grove. The name of the wrecking yard is Walker Auto Recycling in Saginaw,Oregon. I have faith in your skills and I think that sub well look really cool shortly.

laidout · 03-03-2007, 02:26 PM

hay hook me up with the glass i need all the glass and all the tracks i dont have anyof it for mine

BK · 03-03-2007, 02:49 PM

how much are you willing to pay, i dont know about shipping glass, but i could try. ill at least sell you the tracks. i dont need em, after the chop, its going stationary glass. what are they worth to you? i just picked up the burb by the way, after pressure washing it. im getting pics in like an hour.

BK · 03-04-2007, 06:49 PM

here are the pics! rustless front fenders, rear clamshell(which im welding the bottom portion shut) in the back. have a new radiator core support coming with my frame.

layinrocker65 · 03-04-2007, 09:13 PM

like the wheel stops

BK · 03-04-2007, 10:37 PM

laidout · 03-04-2007, 11:30 PM
