Re: project: 3/4 ton dropped
Not too many people lower 8 lug trucks unless its a dually. I saw this suburban at a show and really liked the wheels and stance. Of course its on air, but in my opinion the slots would look good on your truck and be period correct too. May not be your thing, just thought Id share it with you.

Re: project: 3/4 ton dropped
I'm keeping mine 8LUG as well. Just as you say, sets it apart from some others. Project is looking great, keep up the great work.

Re: project: 3/4 ton dropped
thanks alot, i try to get things done as fast as possable, but it all comes down to how much money you have at what time lol. i like the sport mirrors alot, and the dumbo mirrors look good too but not really my thing. thanks for the advice.

Re: project: 3/4 ton dropped
just bought the newest street trucks magazine, and saw chris reyna's 79 c10 on the front cover. it inspired me to keep the trim on. i would go with lexus pearl white on the side, and the rest subaru WR blue pearl. what do you guys think?
