slimbailess · 01-22-2008, 08:52 AM

hey dino, looking good! how you been? broke? are you running drop spindles on the front of the burb? i finally got my comp and batts done, rear is on air, still gotta do the front, but haven't been able to do much, with surgery and cold weather

Dinos63 · 01-22-2008, 10:57 AM

well i fired up my sub today.....just kidding, got a little done on it .and i took it off the car dollys and its sitting on the ground,threw some of the sheet metal,remove the 80's graphics (with some help from my wife) and the cool thing is all these parts were extra and left overs

Slmd92DIME · 01-22-2008, 11:42 AM

Wow look at the rocks on her fingers. JK Looks 50x better w/o the graphics

gulfcoast66 · 01-22-2008, 11:49 AM

Hot dog Dino you dont waste no time, I just seen your pic post last week and you were tearing down the burb now its back together nice work.

soba_03 · 01-22-2008, 11:49 AM

That looks great!!!!!!!!! I'm not sure if it's the fact that you have great weather that allows you to work all year long or the fact that you have such a choice of vintage iron to play with....

I am convinced that I need to move...... it was 15 deg here today. I want to pull out my Burb and play too.....

Can't wait to see it completed.... you keeping this one? Or is this just a money maker? Just wondering... it's a great looking rig....

Regards!

Much better without the graphics!

Rokcrln · 01-22-2008, 03:01 PM

Dino you need to stop and leave a few for other members to buy and build! What is the SQ footage of your lot? Looks like you have it laid out very well.

kevin i saw on here some photos of your house and what you did,very nice.I live in the old part of central phoenix and my house was built in 1946.The sq foot was 800(wow) but i did the same as you a total remodel,pulled the roof,plumbing,wiring , completed all while living in it. i have a huge lot . the house is now 1200(still tiny) but i built a big shop.A guy gave me the trusses for it all i had to do is tear down the building and haul them home from prescott(150 mile away) on a thursday i dug the footer and hauled all the block ,and built it in 5 days and moved in, almost all the time a have about12-14 cars and trucks here.and its a fine art to make them fit

suzq044 · 01-23-2008, 05:24 PM

you have to talk to my daughter she really likes it,I hope to:: have it at the art of noize show and she will be driving it

64shortc10 · 01-24-2008, 01:58 PM

Dino,

The burb is lookin good! I was almost certain that it was going to end up on the C4 chassis though. I amagined it layin frame on some big rollers, but I also amagined it rained money from the Arizona skys

I really wished you would have keeped the graphics. j/k. Well I bought some conversion axles and a Kp notch for my truck, just need some time to install them now. I was going to ask about the ride on the 78 but I didnt think it was drivable yet. So the Kp 6-link is definetly worth the extra pennys? Because i'm still saving mine to get one for my 64! Keep building that varity of custom rides cause i'm loving them. Later

Looks like someone did a 1/2 way decent job on that crossmember. It's no dropmember but not bad. I love the V6 emblems. What's going in it for motivation?
