Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 104 | I think it has a nice stance, look, and sound. Not a fan of the red rims, but to each their-own. I hope that my suburban can look somewhat like this one. I have different plans, but it is a nice mental starting point for me..... I start my frame swap next month!!

Thanks 57Sub3100, It looked painted on to me but your post made me think it was trim from something else. I like the look and may use it on my 55 Burb.

The owner had just finished getting it put together the night before those pictures, I have to call him about some parts so i will ask him what the trim is from and let you know. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 2,557 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 2,557 | I really didn't like the red wheels,but I looked again,and I like it.I think it has a beautiful paint job on it.The grille could be changed easily and I would put a different steering wheel on it.I love that color.
Thanks,Tim
