I wanna see more!! What are you using for second and third row seats?

Great looking burb!! Is it yellow, or ochre?? It's tough to tell in the pictures. Is the burb pulling the camper?

Be careful with that air cleaner. Once in a while they start on fire. The foam will eventually get soaked with gas and it will go poof. I don't think it happens a lot, buu I have heard of it happening so keep an eye on it.

Thanks for the comments - It is '96 Corvette yellow, the seats were factory take outs from a '98 Burb - 60/40 front, middle seats from the same '98 (fold down) dash pad and headliner covered in the same '98 colors as the seats- Heard the same thing on the cleaner - so now it has a 14" round chrome top. I went all out and that is why I have not been on here in awhile - decided to put a big block in something that did not have it orginally....whole big can of worms I opened up - and - had too much into the motor at that point to go backwards... More to follow....later
