Was it that gray one from Craigslist? That thing was a mess, but it laid out hard.

Re: Project Patina Burb
 

You would be correct, and yes, it was a mess underneath.

Re: Project Patina Burb
 

Glad to see that stuff put to good use.

Re: Project Patina Burb
 

Got alot done on the burb today. Installed the bag brackets, cut the cups down to 5/8, installed the bags, and installed the 3 inch drop spindles.

Got done right before it started pouring with some help from my best worker.

Bought a set of 22's with tires off Craigslist today. One of the tires needs replaced and one of them has some curb rash, but they were really cheap.

Nice! 4.8? 5.3?

Re: Project Patina Burb
 

mileage?

Re: Project Patina Burb
 

It came out of a 2003 Tahoe. He said it had 52k on it. Also said he wasn't sure which motor it was, but I talked to Backyard88 and he said it would have had to been special order to be a 4.8, so I'm going to say it's a 5.3

Re: Project Patina Burb
 

I'm thinking you must be ALMOST as help as your little helper is, to see new shiny wheels and a new motor. My girls always loves it when I get something new and or shiny for these old trucks. Very nice upgrades.
