New Here...My 63 Burb
Had been telling me husband, who has a 69 GMC C10 Pickup, that I wanted my own ride/project. Had to be something different that you don't see in our area. Went to a Good Guys show in Texas last year and found this beauty. I fell in love with her instantly and knew she had to come home to Tennessee with us. Two weeks later she was in our garage...looking like she does in the first photo. We had ideas and decided to start on her right away! By the way...we call her Clementine!
She has a 454 crate motor in her and that will stay. We have had the suspension done, 5" drop in front 7" drop in back (All from CPP). All new MagnaFlow exhaust, replaced the brake booster and master cylinder, new tires with a 2 1/4" White Wall from Coker Tire on 15x8 Smoothies also from Coker. A little paint work including removing the big mirrors and replacing with Peep mirrors, repainting the roof, bumpers, grill and those new smoothies. All that is left now is interior work that starts tomorrow! She had the original second and third row seat with the original material, no tears but would tear if you looked at it wrong. Keeping the same classic style inside! Gotta keep her old school! Now she needs a roof rack...any ideas where we can get one? Glad I found this forum and have enjoyed looking at all the burbs so far! |
