New Burb

I just got my new 72 burb from West Virginia. Drove it 950 miles to Nebraska. It needs some improvements but is a great starter. I'm hoping you guys will have a lot of good tips for me.

Re: New Burb

It has the front and full width second bench seats. I am thinking of putting in a more modern interior so they may be for sale.
