Nice Burb. One of my favorites!!
I like how you did the interior. Do you know of anybody with the original seats they want to get rid of? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: 66 suburban build
Every now and then some factory seats will pop up for sale on this site or the HAMB. I don't see anything wrong with yours. Does the front fold up for rear passengers ?I've been keeping track of where your Burb has been. Did you buy it from Gueydan in Kenner?

I bought the burb from a dealer in Nashville. It came from Floyd's Knob, Indiana. It was in Indiana for approx. 6 years. Before that i think it was in Georgia.

Re: 66 suburban build
Very cool! I added the build thread to the comment section of the video. Maybe it'll direct some others to this site & your build.
