Very Nice Suburban

This is a '68 Suburban from a friend of mine who lives in a neighbouring city. He's not a member of this board, but I will post the pictures anyway, give him the link and maybe he'll join
This is the truck first outing, so it's fresh from the paintshop.
He still has some little things to do, but he couldn't wait to drive that mean machine!!

The color is truely amazing. Believe me, the pictures don't do justice, but you'll get the idea.

Dus Joost, tijd om je aan te melden op dit fantastische messageboard?
(Roughly translated it means, So Joost, how about joining this fantastic messageboard? )

Here's pic # 1...

Cya,
Edmond

Damn that's a nice paint job. I wouldn't want it though!! I would put scratches and stuff in it, and the birds seem to target my truck, so that would not be good.

Nice Suburban though!

I must be tired, that thing keeps changing colors on me.

That is sharp. I agree with you though, paint job that nice and the birds and love bugs would kill it.

chrome elusion <sp> that looks great. I was going to paint my 4x4 that color. But my son has too many toys that would end up in the side of the truck. He has scratched his mothers 71 like 10 time this month. good thing it is only primer.
