Re: 72 Suburban Build

Haven't posted in a little while. I've been CRAZY busy with work but I'm missing the Burb right now. Its in the garage in San Diego and I'm in Washington for the next year. Thought I'd post a picture I thought was cool of my son checking out the wheels.

Re: 72 Suburban Build

I haven't had much time to get on here in a few months. 14+ hour days leave me pretty dead by the time I get home. Luckily though I took some leave earlier this month to go visit my Suburban. My wife and son rode with me to take it to one of the local car shows in SoCal (Cruisin' Grand in Escondido). Here are a couple of pictures. There were some REALLY nice cars at the show. It felt really good to see a big crowd of people around it for most of the show. I can't wait for my ship to move back down to San Diego so I can drive it again.

Burb is still looking good! A couple of us in Charleston were talking about you the other day. Wondered why you had dropped off from the board. I understand the working/time thing. Take care.

Here's a couple videos my brother shot with his phone. They're not great but they put a smile on my face.

Re: 72 Suburban Build

Well I have been driving the Burb quite a bit to local shows. Luckily my 2.5 year old son LOVES helping dad work on it (I had to put new water pump gaskets on). I enjoy it too. Unfortunately...there are usually tools or fasteners that end up walking off. Oh well, a small price to pay.

Spent the morning yesterday fixing an annoying transmission leak that I had. Everything is good now. After I cleaned up my son and I went for a ride.

Re: 72 Suburban Build

Went out for a cruise last night and ran into a nice sled in town. Today I drove it to work (60 miles one way) and parked next to my buddy who drove his hot rod in.
