62 arrived

Was feeling homesick just out of the container so a little comfort from an older brother helped on "jet lag"

Right now it is installing your brake clutch mount.
New 25 gal. tank.
Replace the 6 with a 283 .60 over and some goodies.

Make it legal for the Danish "DMV".
Including side blinkers and what ever else they have.

In time I have new seats would like to do the interior with dynamat and insulate then carpet all on hand just need the time.
Paint at some time way in the future ( wife is pissed at all the money it took just to get it here and pay for the import tax and sales tax).

It is in fantastic shape!
Looks like everything is original and kept up very nice.
Brakes great even the E-brake holds.
drives straight shifts perfect.
Both lower fenders in front as usual driverside outside skin most of the way back and that is just about it.
Rubber is in good shape but needs a windshield got most all of the rubber new anyway

The shipping company was rough on it though, used a forklift all over the place on it flatened the rusted exhaust scratched just about everything underneath, squished the tank lucky I already planed on the new one.

Love those 62's! nice to have that rendering as an end goal in your project, looks great. My buddy just put a Pontiac 400 in his 66 GMC longbed, hope you are going to start a build thread.

Is there a carryall/suburban build thread "area"?

Re: Let's post 60-66 SUBURBAN Only Pictures

That's a nice Burb. Rare 4x4 K14 with an original 283. Does yours have a/c? Most had a straight 6 cyl 292. Mines a 66 k14 clam shell Burb out of southern Cali but mine has the straight 6 cyl. 4 speed with three rows of seats.

You can start your build thread here, I did, not sure if it is the right place.

Your Burb has a nice look inside and out, curious if you did the custom upholstery yourself or if you purchased it this way? the 67-68 full wheel covers look good too. Need some side view pics

It has a very unique look that you don't often see on these year Burbs including the interior treatment. Always been a fan of Supremes with pin whites but hope you keep your current wheel setup so you can switch it up when/if you want, you rarely see those full wheel covers let alone on a Burb from this year, well done sir!
