Re: Our "What are we going to do?" 66 Suburban Build

Thanks for the details, I might copy that. I was looking for an inexpensive way to add sways to my 66 and this looks like a good start for the rear. That thing is scary to corner compared to what I'm used to.

Re: Our "What are we going to do?" 66 Suburban Build

Here is a picture of a promo model. The colors are not quite right in the photo. The colors are called Larkspur blue and Harbor blue. The lighter color on top is actually more of a baby blue than the robins egg it looks like.

The darker blue has a nice hue, but the light blue/turquoise isn't doing it for us. Part of the challenge is that we want to carry the silver through the interior and feel the need to tie it in on the exterior also...fortunately we'll have plenty of time to fiqure it out. Thanks for the pic!
