Love your rear A/C! That's on my shopping list for the swap meet in April. Its a shame you can't buy a nice metal fan like that any more.
P.S. The rest of the Burban is great too!

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

Just do a search on 12V metal car or truck or bus or whatever (heh) fan, there are tons of em.

Thats a clean rig. Nice find!

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

Here’s my ‘68 pulling home a ‘69 CST Blazer from a local boarder (Blazer is gone, Burbon remains). I looked through my pics and all I have of it are shots of it dragging home something else. She’s a workhorse! Performs duty as my backup DD. Reliable as a rock but rides like one too. One of these days I’ll have to do something about that instead of the torched front coils.

Second pic is dragging my 72 Chevalier home

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

Here's a couple pics of the new 68 Burb. Thrilled to have tracked it down and now own it. I'll try to get some better pics to share.

Nice looking 68 KingsizeXL. Do you happen to have the paint code?

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

I'm assuming the paint code is usually on the Service Parts Identification in the glove box? That's why I joined this forum.. to get some knowledge, lol. Just let me know where to look and I'll be glad to post it.

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

Yes it should be on the inside of the glove box door. Just take a pic of it and post it. Thanks.

That is the color of my interior and I'm looking to paint the outside of my truck that color along with Ivory, my stock outside color.

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

Hoping it's not covered by that sticker? Supposedly it was owned by a Fire Station so I don't know about the color. Looks like it was probably repainted somewhere along the way.

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

Very nice King! She’s clean looking from here.
I don’t see an optional engine list on the SPID in the glovebox, so I assume 307 v8? I like the column shifted 3 speed too. Been discussed before but since you’re new - most consider it a pretty good theft deterrent- not many low life’s could figure out how to drive it even if you left the key in it!
I’m looking at it on my phone so pretty small - how many seats does it have? They made narrow 2 person seats and also full width 3 person size.

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

Yep 307, 3 on the tree, pretty fun to drive. It's been taken good care of. It's only got one full size back seat and then the wayback has some "extra" holes in the floor where they might have put some equipment at one time. Also got some extra holes in the headliner and I'm guessing the roof at one time where lights or antennas might have been. Still has the call numbers for the Chief and other fireman taped to the sunvisor. Best of all it's only sporting 33,600 miles on it.

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

Outstanding- the mileage was going to be my next question about it. Still inside warranty!
This is a great forum you’ve joined. Post up any questions about her and this crew Will have the answers.
I really like my 68 Suburban (rough as it is..), but yours is amazing. Good job bringing it home.

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

There was a thread on this burb when it was for sale. It was supposedly an ex fire dept rig. I didn't see a paint code on the spid. But it's close to the "Victory Red" that was on my 89 burb. I think the Victory Red is a tad bit darker though.

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

I did a search but couldn't find the thread. If anyone remembers where it is and can post a link, I would love to read it.

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

I can't remember ifit was on the suburban area or trucks. I believe it was on the Craig List thread.

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

I found it, thanks for the help, appreciate it. Great forum.

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

I’ve been searching for the thread— anyone care to put a link up please? Thanks

Hello to the group! "Woody" here posting for the first time as I'm newly registered, but have been viewing your posts for over 5 years and would like to thank everyone for the education on 67-72 Suburbans. This forum assisted me in the selection of my 1972 C/10 9 passenger project I purchased in November 2017. My time (with the help of a mechanic friend) has been spent on the mechanicals to make it road-worthy and dependable, but I have also began to buff out the original paint. The Beach-Burban photographs nicely, but when you get close, you see how much work needs to be done. I hope to include pictures next time, however, when I try to attach photos from my computer I get an error message stating that I have a "security token" missing. I am not real proficient in computer usage, but have attached photos to e-mails before. If someone knows how to rectify, please let me know...otherwise, I'll contact an administrator as stated in the error message. Thanks again to all!

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

Hi Woody - thanks for posting. I know that some forums require a minimum number of posts before certain actions can be taken. There may be a few posts needed before you’re allowed to post pictures here?

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

It's most likely that the picture size is too large.

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

Thanks for the response Dale and fourspeedwagon...The error message did say that I was missing a "security token" so it sounds like something that needs to be "given". I'll see if I can figure out how to shrink my pictures and try that, however, my profile and avatar photos were from the same basic size group of photos and they went through easily? I'll also see if anything changes after I've been registered for a little longer before I contact an administrator.

Dale...I noticed you live in Fairfield. You're right across the bay from my brother who lives in Martinez. Lots of nice driving up there!

Looks good! Welcome to the board. I would have done the same as you, get it road worthy and drive the wheels off of it....:)

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

Hello Woody. Nice to see another "Dark Yellow" truck on the forum. Looks good! I've got a 72 C20 same color.

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

Thanks Leon...That's the plan, load up the family and drive! At Christmas, I popped the rear seat out and drove 10 of us through our local "Christmas Light Area" (big thing around here). The grandkids piled in the back on quilts for the slow drive of our residential streets the way were did as kids...moving from side to side looking out those huge windows. Due to the 4 mph speed, our local law enforcement embrace the "spirt of the law" rather than the "letter of the law", so all was well...and safe!
Woody

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

I've noticed that, NewBayColony. It's funny that for being a "fleet" color, Wheatland Yellow isn't on more vehicles. Even nowadays, Chevy is putting out new trucks in limited numbers (something like 80 per state) as Wheatland Yellow special editions...and I still haven't seen any!

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

Wow!!! That"s a mighty nice "work in progress"...it makes mine look like I'm starting from scratch! What's your interior like?
Woody

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

Thanks....after 6 years of ownership, it's getting there. Interior is 100% original. Headliner needs to be redone and the two seats need to be reupholstered. Outside of that, I'm not going to touch the inside....I like the "worn in" look, its just that the headliner is falling down, and both seats have significant tears in them.
