Michael, your sub looks great!!! Any chance I can a few of those stickers when you finish up my other vinyl, but maybe a truck or Blazer?

I have a set of black ralley's that need tires. I think 275/60R15 will completely change the look and stance of the burb.
Ya I will send you a few square body club decals. did you notice how I put the cowl hood in my decal :)

Just bought it, a 1990 subby, a week or so ago .... raining here today so NO good pix.

This has been added to my GMC fleet: 87 crew dually & 2000 gmc safari (the wife's ride).

We had a "light" mist today & my bones hurt soooooo bad I'm not sure I could hold the camera still right now.

I'm praying for a few dry days ..... even cold dry days.

I just picked up an 85 tonight. Unfortunately I bought it to rob parts for my 69'. The only problem now is my wife has fallen in love with it & doesn't want me to tear it down! My poor 69' is never going to get done, lol.

No joke on the raining. It has been at it for like 2 weeks. When the sun comes out I'll post up some of mine.

Hi Gang
Here are the pics of the 74 Burb when we got it home Wed, 12/16/09. Its a Cali truck until this last May, Very very solid truck with a 350/350 in it

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...e212-16-09.jpg

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...e112-16-09.jpg

There have been a few changes that happened today. Mainly the addition of the 18" wheels I had on my '94 Burb, and a quicky "K wash". :rolleyes: I'll take pics of the Changes when it stops raining here in "sunny" Florida. :crazy:

To answer some of your questions, in time it probably will wind up at the least a "cruise in" vehicle. Maybe pressed into some show duty from time to time. It WILL get lowered, spindles, springs and shackles are being looked for as I type this**. Its a "Custom C10", meaning rubber mat floor, AM radio, P/S, P/DB, A/T truck with add on A/C When the (for real) repaint happens, we will stay with the factory color, only lose the white roof, add chrome bumpers, and maybe change the front seats The 74 is really very solid, with just a few minor "bumps and bruises? It drives out really nice, too!

** = (Anyone have drop spindles for a 73-80 1/2 ton burb???)


Whaddya think gang? :fb:

Happy Hoildays Everyone from Daytona Beach!

Looks like a solid truck to start with, these old burbs are growing on me more and more. I would stay with the white top, I think you are going to have a little too much blue if you get rid of it. Anyway keep us posted and dont forget to post some pics with the new wheels.

That ol burb looks good, can't wait to see pics with 18in wheels. I bet black on top would look good with that baby blue body.

Adam you need to get you a suburban lol

Hi Gang
Heres the "after" pic, with new chrome bumpers (from the local "taiwan" crash parts place) and a "quicky K Wash" and the 18's installed. I'm gonna do a "flip" in the rear as soon as I find out what spring/spindle combo I need.
Whaddya think??

Hi Gang
Heres the "after drop" shot. Belltech 3 inch spindles in front and 3 1/2 drop shackles in the rear. Still not low enough for me...........yet. :D Maybe a couple more inches and I'll be happy.

The first day home 12/16/2009, just licence tag & gas added mods :)

Hi Adam
"K-Wash" is a term mud truck guys around where I live when the spray their truck with Krylon instead of real paint. I did that to cover it till spring when I will take it, get it soda blasted and ready to repaint.

Here's my new one. It will be coming home this weekend. I didn't plan on doing to much to it, but after lookin' at 'ballin's Burb, I think I am going to go that direction instead. I like the idea of being able to get in the back seat without having to climb through the front door, and all of the additional room.

I'll probably still keep the 2wd Blazer, but who knows now? :uhmk:
