New pics of the zombus. she was painted gold and forest green in side . yuck. We found a gallon of magenta floor paint with non stick in it at home depot for 6 bucks, and took to it with mini rollers. Scraped all the black fuzzy crap off the celling ,primer and and rattled it key lime. made door panels out of the paneling I found on a busted entertainment center. I will wrap them in leopard fabric eventually but rolled some of the magenta floor paint on em for now.

Drew,

Welcome to Stovebolt.com

Do you own both of the Suburbans? Do they both run?

If you have questions, this is the place to ask away.

I think they are the same truck, one as he found it and one after he did some repairs and painted it. Looks pretty solid. I have seen a lot of solid suburbans come out of Colorado. Must of been used in the non-winter months.
