Played with many muscle cars, now I want something with style, speed, and room for junk. Recently picked this one up....planning on going back with some variant of the original medium poly blue with a pro touring stance. Assuming I can find quality parts to get this build started.

Re: 67-72 Burbs and Panels 2wheel drive only
It's got cancer around the rear wheel wells. I'm trying to find quality sheet metal for it. Anybody have good contact info for gmcpaul? I sent an email to 3 different emails on his website over a week ago and still nothing. My pockets aren't flame proof...not sure how long I can hold out...lol.

You might try Wes at Classic Heartbeat for the burb panels. He has a more than stellar rep here on the board. Here is a link to his web page, but I would just give him a call. He really knows these trucks and is building a very cool panel right now.

Re: 67-72 Burbs and Panels 2wheel drive only
Wayne,
Truck looks great with the new wheels. It just needs a little altitude adjustment, in my opinion. How do you like driving the truck with those mirrors? I was on the fence about purchasing a set and went with the stock mirrors instead. I thought the mirrors on your truck wouldn't give much visibility. Nick |

Thank you and I agree on the altitude adjustment, Nick. I've been researching my options with another couple inches of drop. The mirrors were on the truck when I purchased it. Visibility is very good on the driver's side, I can't see the passenger side mirror at all - it's only there for visual balance. With the expanse of glass in the Suburban, I don't have any issues with visibility when driving, day or night. Quote:
Thanks! I can't say enough how happy I am with the way it turned out. I have been driving it everyday since I put the new wheels/tires on :) :chevy: |

I bought this 1971 C20 in Portland Oregon in 2015. It was a BB Burb with auto trans and buckets /console, tilt, tach and the rear tailgate door. After pondering for a year and some whether to redo it and install A/C I decided to sell it. The sideways pic is in front of Classic Heartbeat in Olympia Washington as I stopped there and bought some parts on the way home.

Re: 67-72 Burbs and Panels 2wheel drive only
Here is my first Suburban. 1969 C20. It has a factory tach, PB, PS, rear heater, and rear air:lol:
I bought it without the engine and trans. So, I dropped in a 5.3/4l60e. I still have a ways to go. Hopefully it will be done by summer! https://s17.postimg.org/evmq87hzz/KIMG0003.jpg https://s17.postimg.org/7seuslzpr/KIMG0349.jpg https://s17.postimg.org/5b33ld2yn/KIMG0383.jpg https://s17.postimg.org/h1lmfx0e7/KIMG0347.jpg https://s17.postimg.org/h1lmfxv9b/KIMG0345.jpg |

Welcome to the board. Looks good. The rear air looks like it would be pretty much maintenance free..:) I put an LS1/4l60e in my '67 Panel Truck and love it. Keep us updated on the progress. LockDoc |
Re: 67-72 Burbs and Panels 2wheel drive only
Looks good :metal:

Re: 67-72 Burbs and Panels 2wheel drive only
