Re: Ol Blue
Paint was the easy part. The anodized coating took a bit more work. I started with paint stripper for the black. The coating was taken off with oven cleaner and then I hit it with metal polish. It was a bit of work but in all totally worth it in my book.

Re: Ol Blue
I just bought I suburban like yours.... kinda.. I think I'll wait till I've had it at the house for about a month and then start a thread. Then people will be all like "wow that guy is really talented, he changed the door lock knobs in the same day he got them!!!!" Just saying

Re: Ol Blue
Just saw your a/c set up, best I have ever seen. Now that I see one I like, I may even consider one for my build. But we don't live in the devastating heat you do. 117 degrees is what we bake potatoes at.

Re: Ol Blue
That is such a nice truck ! It deserves that pretty front grille. The hard work was really worth the time !!

Re: Ol Blue
Sorry about the late reply.
Life has really been cutting into my hobby time. For the most part I have just been driving it. I did a little update with the transmition pan and swapped Out the wheels and caps. New tires have raised letters so I thought black rims might set it off

Re: Ol Blue
Looks great! Glad to hear you are getting some use out of your 'Burb! I drive mine way more than I work on it. I'd love to do more to her, but time and money seem to be in short supply.

Re: Ol Blue
Big time slacker with the updates. Got around to Adding a little sound system upgrade and engine dress up. Been driving the wheels off the old suburban.

Re: Ol Blue
Sadly I have been making slow progress on the old suburban. I upgraded the tail lights to LED and replaced the exhaust system. I took the lazy path and picked up the Flowmaster system. I only had to make the pipe from the header to the system so it was a quick few hour install. It fit great and sounds how I had hoped.

Re: Ol Blue
LED lights make a great improvement. I should have done this a long time ago.

Re: Ol Blue
The suburban I sold when I started this project is back on the road and I got the chance to get a few pic’s together. Both suburbans need plenty of work but we have been making great progress.
