Got a new toy last night...

You guys might remeber this one for sale a while back, I picked it up from HartRod and he stored it for me in New Mexico until I could get it here! I was traveling so much with work and all last year it sat out there until now but I am glad it's finally here!

Thanks again to Rob, he is a great guy to deal with!

That is one solid project. What are your plans with the beauty?

Re: Got a new toy last night...

what's under the hood? A BBC maybe? Or maybe an LSx motor?

Is that rear A/C up there? Did they have that option?

No more questions....... for now

being a 69, with a high hump, I'm betting it's a 396... or at least, it was originally.

Not too long, one of the easiest mods I have ever been a part of.... plus someone else on the board did a write up on it a while back.

I ended up using the same ones Rob used, Strong Arm lift supports #4220. Picked them up at Advanced Auto Parts, I may swap them out later, these work great but I would'nt mind a couple more inches of lift out of them. Works good though, the hatch will basically raise itself now plus the lift supports look alot cleaner than the old style links.

Re: Got a new toy last night...

No problem....

You know, I am glad I picked up a burb! I remember when I got my first 67-72 pickup and a friend of mine who does bodywork was working on a 72 burb and I never paid "that" much attention to it because I was just not into burbs. But... over the years I have seen some very sweet burbs and they got my wheels turning as to how cool one can be. I can thank a few of you board members for this as well.... here are a couple pics of the ones that really got me wanting a big boned ride!
