Re: The Roadster Shop suburban done
I like the way the hood is done. Sides molded to the fenders, Gives it the High fender look.. Smaller hood... Just sweet...

Re: The Roadster Shop suburban done
I'm liking it overall.....really like the outstanding bumper fitup, but I'm just undecided on the hood mod

Re: The Roadster Shop suburban done
The Roadster Shops guys do some top-notch work. There is a ton of work in that Suburban. I like all of the body mods, even the hood. If the truck was a darker color, and the inner fenders were a darker color (like chassis black), I think that the people who don't care for the mod might like it more because it would disguise it a little better. You have to admit, it has a factory look to it, and for guys with big diameter wheels, it would sure solve a lot of the inner fender issues that they have with the stock configuration.
I can't even imagine how many man-hours they have in that thing, especially at the labor rates that some of the high-end shops charge. That's a Big Dollar truck.

Re: The Roadster Shop suburban done
I'm kinda digging the flush-fit side windows.. Id like to see this in person..
Here's the build pictures from their site. http://roadstershop.com/galleries/1966-suburban/ These guys do fine work, but I'll agree--the changes in the "face" is unappealing--but they generally tend to do something with the face and ass of all their cars.

Re: The Roadster Shop suburban done
It's a great looking truck with 1st class looks but personally I don't care for the headlights and grill. I just dont care for the squareness of it with the curves of the fenders, etc.

Re: The Roadster Shop suburban done
I like the interior. The hood mod is ok, it'll have to grow on me. Rest of it is ok. I've got thoughts on this one but that's just me....
