That black dually is how I hope my brother's V30 turns out. Hey does anyone watch the show American Restorations? I can't remember what channel it was on, but the other night the wife and I were watching it. There was a sweet 88-91 4x4 CC LWB DRW dark metallic blue with sweet 22.5's and traction bars. It was a very nice truck.

Thanks for that pic Michael. That truck is sweet!

Joe, heck no we're not converting it to 2wd! :lol: A truck isn't a truck without 4wd here. I'd love to get Nick's truck to the same level as the one above. But he is shy on funds right now.

When my wife decided she just HAD to have one, I wasn't real thrilled. Now, I don't know how I would ever watch my favorite shows without it.

Guys, please stop dragging the topic off course. DVR? What grille to choose? Please guys, read the title of the thread before posting.

P.S. A suburban is not a crewcab.

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs
 
I agree with pig rig, the flat black ratrod look was cool for about five minutes. I'm so absolutely sick of it now. I was ok with it on an unfinished hotrod, back in the day everyone wanted to finish their hotrod with some pretty paint, but it was acceptable to drive it in primer until you could afford the paint. But people building high-dollar rods and intentionally not painting them bugs me for some reason. And even if it doesn't bug you and you think it looks cool, then you have to agree it's been overdone. I think customizing vehicles is about creativity, not about doing what everyone else is doing.

I'd be proud to have both of them in my driveway. That's some real honest Detroit iron right there. Doesn't look like an 89 though, the grill and bezels looks much older, and the chrome Silverado trim looks out of place on a dually. Seems like it's got some kind of buckets in it. Can't see from the pic, but can you tell what those front hubs are?

What do you think of how my wheel came out? I think the newer style rim woulda looked a little better, but for what it cost me I'm pretty pleased. I even found a set of center caps for the rears that I bought a million years ago and put away, once I get some paint on the rear we'll see how that turns out.

There was a guy here locally that built one several years back. I didn't get any pics of it, but it looked SWEET!! Looking forward to your progress on it.
