69 gonna lay frame
Just picked up my 69 burban. I'm only the second owner of the vehicle which is kinda neat if you ask me.
I drove 15hr round trip for it Cost of burban 800 Cost of fuel/food 300 Cost of truck rental 45$ Future plans. Lsx 5.3 4l60e with stage 2 shift kit Porterbuilt air ride front and rear 16x8 and 16x8 rally wheels if I can find some New to keep panels and lower skins all the way around the truck Leaving the burban patina

Re: 69 gonna lay frame
I've got the basic idea of the mods I want... ad we all know it changes along the way of the build. Like I'm still deciding between the lsx and a possible 4bt cummins things I'm worried about with the 4bt is I'm have no experience working on them where as lsx motor I'm working on 3-5 during the week.
And I know I'll go porterbuilt front but the rear I might go with ride tech so I don't have to cut the floor for notch and all that. I'd like to add a 3rd row of seats Also this is funded all by me a 23yo lol so ****s gonna take awhile

Re: 69 gonna lay frame
Well after 4 hours of working on the truck in the rain ive torn the rubber mat out to see how bad the floor boards were. ill get a picture tomorrow of the only spot I found.
also I cant get the darn 307 in there to have spark after trying many things. I wasn't getting power to the coil until I hot wired it to the battery. my ignition isn't getting power so I need to check all the wiring in the truck if its really that bad ill rewire the truck with a spare 22 circuit harness ive got from my drift car. im only willing to spend 150$ on the motor before I pull it and start swapping the lsx series motor in grabbing a 4L60e tomorrow with stage 2 shift kit.. 200$ ill have pictures tomorrow. thanks for looking
