Re: 88 Crew cab dually

I ended up calling them back this afternoon, I'm going to have them repaint the dually fenders all blue and they are going to refund me some $$. This isnt the last paint job this truck will get I just need something to keep the neighbors from telling the HOA I have project truck in the driveway. I'll post some better pictures next week, it really doesnt look too bad in person.

Re: 88 Crew cab dually

I understand that. Unfortunately, my HOA is my wife. My truck resides at work for now.

You cant get used to driving a dually if its parked at work, I thought I would tell you to keep your truck a dually in one more thread !!!

Re: 88 Crew cab dually

We are actually moving tomorrow, so it's coming home. I started calling it Clifford, like the big red dog. My wife will get to enjoy it's large, red goodness all weekend, at least. Heck, she might even grow to like it.

The dually is looking good man, the second paint job is much better. What blue did you use?

A tired warrior of the 1980s in a world of low profile tires, front wheel drive, and plastic bumpers, where people stay in their houses until snowplows move the offending substance from their paths, too helpless to travel without AAA and chains and salt, clearing their windows with longhandled brushes while gently stepping around in the snow trying to stay nice and dry.

So did you decide what you are doing with your dually yet?

Re: 88 Crew cab dually

I may be trading the dually off to a buddy, not sure yet. If not, I think I might put it up for sale.

On yours, I think you will want a bright color to break the two that you have. I would try the red first.
