actually i have had my interior for a little over a year now. I found it in the paper from some guy who had a 42K mile totaled tahoe. called him up and drove out there and pulled the seats, and was on my way. You may cry if I tell you what I paid for them...

My burb at Showfest
Drove it 90 miles in the rain w/ no hood, no rear tubs, and no rear floor. It was like a monsoon inside the truck. But I didn't care once I got to the motel and everyone went crazy over the ole rustbucket.

I figured I should update my pics as I have 2 more burbs from the last time I put a pic in this thread...
The med. olive 71' C10 is the first one I got. The Yellow/White 72' C10 I got off of boardmember Cheesewagon a short time ago. This is my daily driver The orange 72' C20 is the parts truck I picked up. It is a factory 402/T400, f&r A/C, AM/FM, ect.... This is my donor truck to put the 454 into my 71(which will be done this spring!) I may take the C20 chassis and convert it to 4wd and get it ready for another body.

Nope no photoshop here. Thanks. Progress is slow. Low budget and NO time. Plus the only tools I have are a pair of vice grips and a flat head screwdriver, well not really but it feels that slow.

b=b, with the front fender trimming, the 35" tires almost make the 4" lift seem an inch too high. Is the only fender trimming in front of the front tires? IOW, a truncated cup.

b=b I see you got your H2 Wheels on there. They look nice. I liked mine but put my truck back to stock height and my new burb is a 1/2 ton. I may lift the burb still I don't know.

hey guys,
I did zero trimming, I don't know why the fronts are short. Anybody have any ideas why? I plan on building a wrap around winch bumper. This was a 1/2 ton. I put axles from a '78 camper special under there, no probs.

Probably they were rusted out,it is very common to rust in the front corner.Someone trimmed them off.

Re: Let's see some Burbans!
Looks like I am going to have to take some new pictures of my Burb when I get a new camera. My old Dig-camera is shot. Some really nice Burbs on here.
