Re: 53 Surburban "Family Truckster"
Looking good! The people need a video of this bottle opener and magnet in action Throw it at the bottom of your list...possibly even include it in a slow mo burn out video with someone opening a bottle on the back and then a thumbs up and smile after the black exclamation marks are on the ground...I don't know. Maybe I'm just dreaming

Re: 53 Surburban "Family Truckster"
Actually, I haven't been on IG since 2019 sounds like there's a reason to check it out though! Is your name the same there?

Re: 53 Surburban "Family Truckster"
As part of keeping with my rusty on top and finished on the bottom side. I deiced to work on the running boards. These are original running boards and in incredible shape. At first I planned to sandblast the bottom side before painting with rust guard paint followed by coating it all in raptor liner like the rest. After seeing it was just surface scale I decided to wire wheel most of it and spot sandblast the brackets and hard to reach areas.

Re: 53 Surburban "Family Truckster"
Pretty productive weekend. I got the last of the sheet metal coated on the backside with Raptor liner. I added it to the front fenders, the front splash pan and the running boards. Only the backside of the hood it next.
My friend Josh that is a fabricator at my friends hotrod shop came over Sunday to lend a hand. He as been helping me fab an exhaust system out of 2.5" SS with Hooker Blackheart mufflers. We also set my pinon angle to verify clearances of the drive shaft to the exhaust. He has just about got the more difficult part handled. He fits onsite and welds at the shop....Comes back and repeats the process. Once the exhaust is done I will drop the body back on... I will get some pics of the Raptor Lined body parts. Marc

Re: 53 Surburban "Family Truckster"
That looks great. One question though. Your master cylinder looks to be very close to your exhaust. Are you concerned about heat soaking the master cylinder?
