August 67-72 ToTM Winner







Congrats Junkie

General
Manufacturer:GMC
Year:1971
How long have you owned this truck?:4 years
History behind the truck:As far as I know my Burb was "born and raised" in Calif. The guy I bought her from owned her for about 13 years. I know she was "used and abused". The PO owns a paint and body shop, so when I purchased her, she had a fairly new paint job, but the metal wasnt treated properly in places, so rust control is an ongoing problem. My Burb has recently gotten a new SB 350 with a HPCam, I had changed to headders, but soon got tired of them heating my starters and blocking my plugs, went back to rams horns manifolds. She has 2 ch. Flowmasters, with 3 in. tips that end just before the rear axle. Bout 2 years ago, she got a new T350 tranny with a shift kit installed. Shes had all new brakes, and the front end all rebuilt. Shes borderline stock. She was "Born" with over head A/C, but I removed that and had after market AMA under dash A/C installed. My Burb is my daily driver. Shes taken me Coast to Coast 2 times, only problem was a broken fan belt. The paint job thats on my truck was there when I bought her, its a Pearl white with a lavender over spray. The graphics were the POs too. I plan on having a "frame on" resto done in the comming years, she will be a simple Pearl white, the strips will be removed and her body will be smooth. She has the "Clam shell" type rear doors now, and Im working on a set of Barn style doors to replace them
