Re: Roadster Shops new 66 Suburban project
amazing build...while often a little too radical for myself, such great craftsmanship never ceases to amaze me....i'm scared to even guess how much $$$ is going into this....but it's so cool that technology allows us to follow along with the builder, seeing almost every phase of the process & details that many of us would otherwise overlook...it's truly a work of art!...now i'm anxious to see it completed

Re: Roadster Shops new 66 Suburban project
What beautiful metal finishing. Not only is the project cool, look at that shop! I’ve never even heard of a frame jig on a rotisserie. And full size car bodies stacked on the wall, and the lighting. Wow!

Re: Roadster Shops new 66 Suburban project

Re: Roadster Shops new 66 Suburban project
Looks really cool so far. The hood, fender set up is sweet and lots of work of course. Sometimes I see super nice metal work and think it's a shame that it has to be covered with paint.

Re: Roadster Shops new 66 Suburban project
I love the hood mod.
I am doing the 67 grille swap too, something tells me theirs may look better with no paint on it though. gorgeous work.

Re: Roadster Shops new 66 Suburban project
The hood is cool but the bumpers will really have the biggest impact on the exterior appearance.

Re: Roadster Shops new 66 Suburban project
Crazy metal skills on this one. So nice in fact, that final bare metal finish is suspect. Holy crap!

Re: Roadster Shops new 66 Suburban project
aint that the truth? That is a sign of true craftmanship - of which there are no similar signs in my garage.

Re: Roadster Shops new 66 Suburban project
Wouldn't it be nice to just send one over and tell them to call when it's ready, and look as nice as that one
