It has Arizona radio station stickers in the cab so I think it may have came from there.The interior is very nice and original.The core support has no rot and the only place i saw rust all the way thru was just behind each rear wheel.This is going to make a nice work truck for me,and the boy will love it too

After work today i went to go get my Burb.I had to pay a little more than the $600 I said i was getting it for,but I think it is well worth what I paid for it.The interior is so dang nice and original I had to pinch myself a few times today.Here are some pics that I took tonight.I will some more when the sun comes out tomorrow.






In one of the pics i rubbed my hand on the rear quarter and the oxidized paint seemed to come off pretty easy.I'm gonna sweep her out and hit everything with some soap n hot water. I'll post more pics in the morning.Tell me what yall think. Be good

Looks like nothing but surface rust to me. You got a steal of a deal on it.

Today I wiped the interior with a dry rag to knock down the dust a heavy dirt.Then I swept it out(a lot of small mouse droppings and acorns/snail shells).Then I used a green scotch bright pad and the water hose to lightly scuff the oxidized paint away.I think it came out looking 100% better,plus the patina is really nice.I may keep it this way for a while.I'm gonna have a lot of questions for yall when I start taking the motor and trans out of my 95 gmc vandura3500 and use the computer and wiring harness for the burb.Tell me what yall think.Be good

While cleaning out the burb this morning i confirmed my suspicions of it being from Arizona.I found a temporary registration receipt from Mesa,Arizona in 1995.there is also a registration receipt for a 70 chevy truck with LP "LADDA".The name on both is Ronald O'Brien.After I found these receipts,Ive been wondering all day if this burb was owned by a board member.Thought it would be cool if it was.If so,would be cool to learn more about the history of the burb.Would blow my mind

Nice find, looks very solid.

You look a little short in that pic next to your new 'Burb.Are you sure you'll be able to see over the steering wheel? Nice truck,sounds like a cool project.

Nice burb! I would love to have that middle seat! Looks like it's in great shape, original paint and all!

[Flint70step]

Sry ,my son has already claimed the middle seat.Good luck trying to get it from himThe tint on the windows saved it from the sun.The cloth is nice and pliable and in over all super good condition.

Haha, well maybe I can work a deal with him... My 5 year old helped me bleed my brakes the other day, and was under the truck with me on his own creeper. Good times!

[Flint70step]

Good times indeed.My son loves the burb,he's been tumbling from seat to seat and waving his arms out the hatch.He has a blast hangin in old trucks
