Re: Our "What are we going to do?" 66 Suburban Build

Well that didn't work for #@&%. Ordered up some #508 Balboa Blue/Dark Blue in a rattle can (not cheap) from O'Reilley's Auto Parts and picked it up after work this evening. Sprayed one of the wheels to get a feel for the color...not even close! The wheel in the foreground is their "dark blue"

I wanted to have wheels painted and tires mounted by the weekend so we could get some exhaust work done Sat.
Now I'm leary of ordering from an out-of-state (link above from 3rdst.) company that I can't return product to. I've got 5 different shades of dark blue that don't match as it is now...
