Re: 6 cylinder Burb?
Yes I have one.Mine is a 70 burb 4x4 with 250 six-3spd on column.I was told from the little red book that there was than 1,000 made of my model.I'd say that's kinda rare.

My father in law has a 72 burb that is 6 cylinder 4 wheel drive. Kind of a wierd powertrain combo but it runs like a top.

I have a '67 Suburban my that my folks bought new - 292 six with Turbo 400 tranny. Nice combo; replacing the stock 1bbl carb with a 2bbl really woke up the motor.

We had a 67 Suburban in the Forest service with a six. It was a 3/4 ton 2wd with some pretty heavy duty coil springs in the back. We would load it with sacks of ready mix and grilles and head up the mountains to install them in different campsites.

Re: 6 cylinder Burb?
I just picked up an ex Navy Sub that was a 6 with a power glide. Been upgraded to a yet to be identified SB and trans. It also seems to have come with disc drakes. It was delivered to the Navy on 12/69. Anyone know if the Military Versions came with Disc in 70?

Re: 6 cylinder Burb?
I think all Chevy trucks got front discs in the 70 model year.
