Good bye golden burb
 

I bought my suburban 15 yrs ago for $100. It truly was a inspirational buy.
That's a different story. Last week I crashed the burb along with my trailer and a few days before I got laid off. Money and jobs will come and go but it's had to
find a $100 GOLDEN BURB.

I hope you are ok!

Wow, that's a bummer.... I guess there are a lot of good parts on it still, but no you will probably not find another $100 GoldenBurb...:(

YIKES! Yes, I hope everyone is ok.

Looks like a lot of good parts on it. I wouldn't just junk it.

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

Thanks for caring. Bruised but fine.

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

Good to hear you are okay. Trailer wrecks can be very scary. Great story with the $100 entry fee to Burban world. With that low of a price it's a shame to have to face parting with it, but I understand that food and shelter thing. I hope things turn around for you.

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

Sorry to hear that. Hopefully you can part it out to make a few $$!! Good luck.

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

Glad you ok. Sorry you had to go through that. Do you plan on looking for a new Suburban? I know you said in another post you've already started to put together some parts for it.

That suxs, but glad you are OK. At least Golden Burb can be a donor such that other Suburbans can live!

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

It's very sad news indeed. I'm glad you're ok. I hope things start loking up for ya

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

It's good to know that your ok physically after this accident. I wish you the best with everthing else you are going through and hopefully this isn't your only transportation.

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

Thanks guys. The funny thing is When I got GB it ways a work vehicle I had no idea about the 3rd door thing, Then later found this website lol
Then it became more then Just a truck I don't even have kids grand-kids or even friends why do I need all that room lol. Hell my wife payed $500 to reupholster the seats and still didn't ride in it
lol so why continue?
BECAUSE I LOVE IT.

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

Glad you are ok. Wrecks with a trailer are scary!

Oh no, glad you are OK!

Heartbreaking on the gold Burb.

Will you get another?

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

I been looking and nothing good. I called a bunch of salvage yards and found a 70 barn door for $750 nothing with it.

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

Turned out I saw this suburban 4 yrs ago. Boom $500 it was meant to be. I pick it up tomorrow

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

Great news! !!

Good deal. At least the strippers couldn't take the 4th door....:)

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

Nice glad you found something so fast. The new body looks pretty solid.

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

I'm seeing a suburban build in the future 😎

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

$600 dollar Burban is a great deal! Great find and it's green too. Congratulations dude!! :metal::metal::metal:

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

Glad to hear your okay.

Also glad to hear you found a replacement project.

Just out of curiosity, how did the crash happen? I'm assuming the GB was towing the trailer?

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

(In a nut shell)
Was taking a butt load of concert to the cement recycle when the trailer fish tailed and I couldn't correct it.. then BOOM jack knife.. Hit the dart bank on both sides.

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

Wow!

Glad you are ok and even cooler that you found a replacement so fast. Love that 503 green as well!!!

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

Picked up the body,but it was a ''B'' to get the axle on with out tools.

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

My 67K20 Suburban has the green color for the interior. Looks like yours had three seats!

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

That body looks really solid!

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

Looks good

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

post your green color interior.
I have a really nice white 3rd seat.
Surprisingly very little rust and dents for setting in a junk yard for years...
The Problem will be how to mach the old color on different doors.:crazy:

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

Got any seats you want to sell?

He can't sell parts on the board because he isn't a Premium member....

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

Thats too bad, he should upgrade. Its not much $ and it looks like he just might have a bunch of leftover parts to sell.

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

:buh:
Having looked at the new Burban photos I suspect he will be needed most of the pieces off the old one. And as he looks to be a three door kind of guy I would bet he's stock piling some spares for the future. So sad to see the Goldenburb sitting there waiting its turn in the crusher. I sure hope there is a resurrection thread coming our way. Maybe even in 503 green!

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

Maybe posting a "looking for ad" and getting a nation wide search for some 503 doors is the answer to that problem. You've had some rough luck with all this. Now its time for that to change.

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

I'll get some pictures this weekend of the interior

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

Shame your so far away. I am getting ready to knife this one. It is a 72' so not sure if it is exact color match but it does look like it. Pretty much complete interior as well except for cargo panels and headliner

They were shipped to cali

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

Thanks for pointing that so fast.

Re: Good bye golden burb
 

Sorry to see about Goldenburb and glad you are okay. It looks like you rolled it too. You were lucky from what I see. Nice score on the new burb. That is a heck of a deal. That means you've got lucky on 2 of these so far. :lol:
