Three diff colors combo's grey with a black roof,with mat black inside,well we are changing the inside clear to a semi gloss just to give it a slight shine.left front door has the slight shine on the inside.The hatch is gloss on the outside and jam area,with semi on just the face,nice combo,fantastic job

Well hard to tell in the pictures i have 3 inch springs in the front with a 2 1/2 drop spindles, and in the rear i have 4 inch drop springs with 2 inch blocks may see how that comes out,the tires in the pics are really small,will steal my 69 c10 wheels off when i get it home for reference.It has 20x10 in the rear and 20x8 in the front, then i may go 22 in the rear of the burb,the truck has a 4x6 drop on it
