Re: 1972 3dr Suburban Build Thread

Well it's been almost a year since I did any work to the 'burb. Last week I pulled it out from under the tarp. I washed a years worth of dirt off, what a mess.

This week I pulled the old windshield out and installed a new one. I picked it up from a local glass place for 130 bucks. This one has been a real beast to install, but I managed to not crack this one. I also put the wheel adapters on. I've needed them for some time now, my rear wheels rub the inner wells when I turn hard.




I also fixed the grill. I took some 1/4 plastic, blue was all I had. I shaped the piece with a coaping saw and an angled grinder, then used body filler to smooth it out.
