Looks like a gooddeal for 900 bucks! Looks very solid. Mine has a hell of a lot more rust. But I got mine for free so im not complaining.

Re: Let's see some Burbans!

Thanks FF, they are 20 x 8 all around. I have some better pictures of the wheels, and of the truck in general. I'm thinking about getting them scanned and throwing them on a thread.

Sorry! I am not as fast in my older age you know. I had to buy a new camara. My old one went on the blink. I am still trying to learn how to use the new camara as you can tell by some of the pictures.

Re: Let's see some Burbans!

Picked this up about 3 months ago. 1971 1/2 ton. No rust ( other than the bumper ). Had a tired 350 and 4 speed in it. Not any more. It's my daily driver for the winter.

Re: Let's see some Burbans!

Thanks Randy. (Not the Randy Cox from Baker Concrete I presume???) I went in blind, but figured for $900 if it was a rust-bucket, at least I could get rid of some parts, but the gamble paid off. The pics shows the worst side, and not much rust...yet. Your's looks like it could climb a telephone pole. Sweet.

Re: Let's see some Burbans!

I don't think I've posted mine on this thread so...

When I first brought it home (ebay purchase):


Drop/Discs/Wheels:


New inner panels (seats have been recovered since):


Rack:

Badly needed new side mirrors and refectors (exhaust has been changed since):

...and the 476:

Re: Let's see some Burbans!

I'm dealing on this Burb right now. The seller told me the price and I'm just sorting out getting the money together for it. I found this unexpectidly and figure its pretty decent for the money. I wont disclose the asking price but feel free to give your opinion on its value. Its a small block with a 700R4 and working front and rear air (converted to 134A) and a 700R4. The seller ( in his 70's now) has owned her for the last 25 years. He says he was always gonna restore it but feels with the other 3 or 4 projects he has on the go will never get her done. I've always wanted one of these Burbs and have found some over the years but there was always a "but" when I wanted to buy it. Even now I got to scramble to get the money together but I'm tired of "buts"..The big attraction for me with with this one is the air conditioning and rust free barn doors.

Mine? I bought it dropped a little, probably an inch or two. I'll have to see what brand the lowering springs are. It looks better with the Cragar Dragstar wheels that were on it when I bought it.

Another picture of my '69 to keep the photo chain going:
