Finally I was able to beat the incoming rain and get the 2nd burb and 3 frames loaded up and brought home. I originally "assumed" the frames were long beds & intended to just cut them up for parts. After I got them dug out I found out none of them are LWB frames. What i ended up with is one 72 GMC Jimmy frame that still has painted bumpers and all the cross members & springs still attached. I will likely keep this to restore for one of my Blazers.

One of the frames is a bare short bed frame with body mounts and all cross members except for the front suspension member

the last frame is a SWB with a lowered 6 lug front end with Classic lowering coils and shocks and it has been boxed in the back with a home grown C notch and what appears to be a ladder bar attachment point.

There were so many briars I did not look at them real close when i was out there the 1st time. I took my Bobcat over yesterday to help load the Burb and get the frames out.

It was a shame to see the burb in this condition. Look at the options on the spid. The steering and 373 rear are long gone.
