Re: 72 Dropmember Suburban

I havent been in town to see it but dad has gotten the white on the top painted. He sent me this one teaser picture.

I will be back over and we will get the doors, the hatch and tailgate hung so we can get the stripe laid out.

Re: 72 Dropmember Suburban

Thanks for the compliments...Im really happy with how its turning out so far. I cant wait to see what it looks like after its all color sanded and buffed.

Im heading out of town tomorrow for two weeks and Im hoping dad will get the blue knocked out. We did get the third door hatch and tailgate put back on today and got them all lined up.

I'd recommend painting them to match. That would look better IMO.

I'm away for two weeks but I did get all the weather stripping and window rubbers ordered. I'm hoping to have it all by the time I get back.
