Re: Burb to tahoe conversion
That tahoe is going to be one killer ride once it is done, any more pics ? What kind of frame are they going to run since they completly cut the floor out ? Anyone have pics of that blazer finished ?

Re: Burb to tahoe conversion
The only thing I do care for is the front end of that ride. everything else is killer.

Re: Burb to tahoe conversion
That's cool
But IMO... it doesn't look right keeping the burb wheelbase. It looks like a bob'd burb, not a Tahoe. Posted via Mobile Device

Re: Burb to tahoe conversion
that burb was up for sale for a while...almost picked it up. looks like someone got it cheaper than i could or he decided to keep it.. cool idea and credit for the work, but shortening the wheelbase would make it more tahoe-ish....

Re: Burb to tahoe conversion
The leading edge of the step notch can be seen thru the rear door opening.
I wonder if they plan on moving the rear wheelwell opening forward? I like the 73-80 front clip also.
