Thank you sir,

did you have to modify the tank fill?

Nope just reduce from 1 1/4'' to 1'' on the tank.. Fills quick at the pump.

ok !! there's been two hrs or reading and just taking it all in, your Burb looks great I hope to get one soon and get started on building it to replace my truck as my daily driver.
do you have any detailed pictures of the wire harness ( for the eng.)
Any way you do great work, I know it takes more time then most know! to keep a build posted and load the pictures and dialog.

Nobby...absolutely stunning Burb! Your ride is the insperation for my '65.
I had a question for you on your wheel combo...looks like you went with the 20X10 and 20x8.5 combo, what offsets are you running and what tires? Any rubbing issues?

Hey Thanks so much man...You got the wheel size right. I have 255/40s up front an 295/40s rear. Can't remember backspace at the moment but the 338s come in only two options I think.. I put 1/2'' spacers on the rear because the 66 rear is a little narrow. It has no rubbing issues but it's close. Thanks

Great looking interior!! I see that the front seat is one piece. How do you get into the back? Also -- looks like some power seat controls hiding under the edge. Details? Thanks Jim

Thanks Jim, That pic is before I finished interior. I have the jump seat that folds forward in now. The switches are for the air ride. Just didn't want them on the dash. Thanks again..
