Project Patina Burb

I picked up this 1972 burb down in Olive Branch, MS, about 4 hours away from me. It is a really solid burb. A couple of rust spots, but overall it's real solid.

Not a fan of the rear of it too much, but it's growing on me. I plan on drilling out the door handles so I'm not leaving them shaved. The guy has the parts for a 67 front end already and that was a selling point for me.

It has 2 inch drop coils in the front, 4 inch in the rear w/1in block, Drop Shocks all the way around and it's already been C-Notched. Also already has the Adjustable Track Bar installed. He gave me a set of bags to go with it because I've toyed with the idea of just bagging the rear to get it lower. I'll probably try my luck with schrader valves if I do.

Came with all new weatherstripping except for the rear side windows.

My plans(as of now)

5.3/6.0 LS Engine
67 Front end
Lower it more!!!
Going to go Blue and White Patina
