Since the body was nice from the start it was a quick fix to paint, did up the interior and sold it the minute it was finished,
Wow 26! After that many you must see them in your sleep. You ought to write a book and make some coin off that knowledge.

Haha, the only problem with you posting your rides is that everyone drools over your awesome builds and the burbs and panels don't get the love they so wish they had lol.

That is a very sharp looking burb. Not over the top ... just right!

Curious what drop and tire wheel size you are running.

LuckyScott 08-25-2017 09:51 PM
Re: 67-72 Burbs and Panels 2wheel drive only
 
4/5 drop. with 15 inch corvette rally wheels.

And Thank You! for the nice complement.

I sideswiped a car in Des Moines, IA. No injuries in either vehicle but decent amount of damage to both vehicles. I have the door replaced on the Panel Truck and welded the patch panel on the quarter Friday. Hopefully I will have it ready to prime and block sand tomorrow.

I'm glad to hear it's just bent metal. It still sucks though, I really like your panel.

Played with many muscle cars, now I want something with style, speed, and room for junk. Recently picked this one up....planning on going back with some variant of the original medium poly blue with a pro touring stance. Assuming I can find quality parts to get this build started.

It's got cancer around the rear wheel wells. I'm trying to find quality sheet metal for it. Anybody have good contact info for gmcpaul? I sent an email to 3 different emails on his website over a week ago and still nothing. My pockets aren't flame proof...not sure how long I can hold out...lol.

You might try Wes at Classic Heartbeat for the burb panels. He has a more than stellar rep here on the board. Here is a link to his web page, but I would just give him a call. He really knows these trucks and is building a very cool panel right now.

Thanks for the heads up. Wes was great to deal with and very knowledgeable. I just bought enough sheet metal from him to hopefully redo all the problem areas.

Here is mine. 1967 C10, originally had 283, 4spd, and 3.73's. It currently has a 454, TH400, 3.07's. 1 coil has been cut from front springs. SB springs btw. The rear is on bags with Schraeder valves. 15x8 rallies with 255/70/15's on all 4 corners.

That is sweet. Painted bumpers on 503 green, one of the best combos ever! :metal::metal::metal:
