you are speaking my color!

68 Suburban · 10-20-2003, 09:58 PM

Very nice looking burb!

Hotrodhenryj · 10-21-2003, 12:58 PM

Thanks for the positive comments. I don't really like the color that well but it is a straight body. I have been trying to fix all of the FU's the PO did to it. She blew the factory BB up pulling a horse trailer with the oil low. Said the rod went through the block. Anyway here is a pic of the motor after replacing all of the welded up crap, and new Krylon overhaul. Chuck

Hotrodhenryj · 10-23-2003, 11:41 AM

I think the billet grills really inprove the looks

68 Suburban · 10-23-2003, 03:56 PM

Don't tell da-burb you don't like the color !!!! lol

VTKidder · 10-23-2003, 04:22 PM

Ochre's like the Yankees; love or hate, nowhere inbetween.

I love ochre, I hate the Yankee$$$$$$$$.

Hotrodhenryj · 10-25-2003, 04:59 PM

This truck was a factory BB. I now have an original 402 that I will sell also if anyone is interested.

Jim68 · 10-30-2003, 02:38 AM

HEEEEY!! That grille DOES look good in there Chuck!

That was a fun visit. Thanks again.

landon4421 · 10-31-2003, 06:05 PM

Looks good ! What are your plans ?

Hotrodhenryj · 10-31-2003, 08:13 PM

James, I am satisfied with the look of the grill, beats trying to get a repo also. Did you get the parts on yet? I got two more '68's in this week. One is SB other is a Custom LB.
Landon, This is supposed to be a for sale ad but guess no one wants one now. I guess I'll install new seat covers and carpet next and see if it will sell. I have another truck that I want to start on.

Hotrodhenryj · 11-24-2003, 05:36 PM

Still for sale, have digital pics, feel free to make offers.

Chuck, does this mean what I think it does?

Hotrodhenryj · 01-15-2004, 05:39 PM

Jeff, I am not sure, but think he wants it for himself. Maybe load it with parts?? We will see.

**CPNE** · 01-15-2004, 05:44 PM

No I didn't mean that. I just hadn't heard from Joe in quite a while. I'm glad he's still around.

da-burb · 01-16-2004, 12:59 AM
