kenele · 08-11-2002, 01:28 PM

kenele · 08-11-2002, 01:38 PM

Lumpy · 08-11-2002, 01:44 PM

Very Nice! You only paid $1000 for that burb?!?!?! Can you say deal of the century!??

**68 Stepside** · 08-11-2002, 01:59 PM

Very sweet!!! Hell, you're doing good just to get a pile of rust for a grand around here....

TJ

**72 Super** · 08-11-2002, 02:36 PM

Ray

*racedvl* · 08-11-2002, 04:23 PM

J/K .... Very nice. You got quite the deal!!

kenele · 08-13-2002, 10:36 PM

He was askin' $1200 for it i offered him $1000................he said yes and i was outta there before the candid camera crew could pop out and tell me it wasn't really happening

**oldiron** · 08-13-2002, 10:50 PM

kenele, Great looking burb. Hope to see you around town. I saw it in the truck trader but I figured one burb was enough. Glad you got and are giving it a good home.

kenele · 08-13-2002, 11:06 PM

Yeah I have been looking for you Oldiron.......i have been working in Arlington off and on for the past two weeks. Do you ever hit any of the local friday or Saturday night runs in Everett?

weasel29gm · 08-13-2002, 11:12 PM

Good buy, Good buy,and Good bye !!!!!!!!! great deal!!!!!!!!

**oldiron** · 08-13-2002, 11:13 PM

Where abouts in Arlington are you working? I get home around 3:45. I'm getting ready to go to Spokane on Friday for the Goodguys run.
My work # is 425-348-7180 give me a call. Ask for Dennis. Maybe we could meet after work on Thursday.

kenele · 08-13-2002, 11:21 PM

Today was our last day in Arlington we are moving back out to Monroe tomorrow. If I get the burb back tomorrow we are gonna take it camping this weekend so we should try and meet one of these weekends when we are both in town.

da-burb · 08-14-2002, 12:41 AM

You have been cured of burb-aholics if you can say what oldiron said above. Or should I say that these are the words of a very sick individual who aint quite right in the head.

Personally, I would like to visit your part of the states if you would find me another deal just like that. Let me know when I should plan my vacation.

**oldiron** · 08-14-2002, 08:50 AM

One rule at our house. If it cant fit in the shop or the garage then it isn't coming home. Right now the shop and the garage are full. What I really need is a flat bed but stllookn wont sell me his at my price.LOL

red71cheyenne · 08-14-2002, 11:01 AM

Da@@!!! That is one nice looking burb for 1K. Way to go! Congrats and hope that crate runs great. Jeff.

devinfife · 08-14-2002, 12:24 PM

devinfife · 08-14-2002, 12:27 PM

Southpa · 08-14-2002, 12:35 PM

WOW! Nice burb for that money. I hope you gave the owner's seeing-eye dog a pat on the head before you left! Hard to tell exactly what color ...black? or a very dark green or blue?

diggin69 · 08-14-2002, 04:02 PM

Looks like you made out like a bandit, I would love to have a burb they are hard to come by here, & for a $1000 boy did you get lucky... how good is it looks like new to me........

kenele · 08-14-2002, 05:21 PM

kenele · 08-14-2002, 05:24 PM

Spoof · 08-14-2002, 06:25 PM

Wow, its a dead ringer for my 71! Cept for the mirrors and motor.

kenele · 08-14-2002, 09:23 PM

Spoof I was using your pic to show anyone who cared , what my new ride looked like. I can't wait to get mine back to rip those dang trailer mirrors off.
