Im pretty open minded on it. I know i dont want the perrywinkle purple anymore lol, I was thinking like a gun metal grey so somthing along those lines. I just wanna do a simple paint job thats not too flashy but still looks decent and doesnt take away from the truck in general.

Im definatly open to any paint scheme ideas so shoot them my way!

im originally from cali and thats what we used to call a tool box back at the shop i worked at cuz thru out the day we never got time put really put up our tools between customers, we just tossed them back in the box then one day one of my co workers coined the name tool catcher.

Hey, your Burb was awesome before! Great work man! This is going to be an awesome build! As far as a paint sceme, go black with it! That's just a random thought. :lol:

Re: 540 BBC 68 Burb Dually 54" Boggers on Rocks
 

Why wouldn't you use a 67-72 stepside fender and make it look like it's almost factory?

Re: 540 BBC 68 Burb Dually 54" Boggers on Rocks
 

Well, thats a great question. A good buddy of mine has a 67 stepside and i grabbed one of his rear quarters and lined up on the truck and it just didnt look right. I think part of it was just vause with the stepside pannels theres an agressive swoop in the front where the wheel wells start. On the suburban it just didnt look correct cause with the 3 door style theres just a huge pannel on the drivers side that the elongated curve looks better and the stepside pannels looked like it stuck out a boat load like a big hump (hope that made sense). Secondly the quarters that were on it i already had and it was more of a convience factor. Finally i knew i was gonna have to hack them up regardless to widen the, for the larger wheelwells so i didnt wanna buy new fenders just to cut them in half and risk it looking worse. I think widening the wheelwell is a big risk as is and i think the quarters that are on it seem to look alright... great point though the thought did cross my mind.

The before truck was just a little to wild for my tastes, but I like the way you are going now. I think it would look cool with a stock style two tone paint scheme. Keep up the good work!

Re: 540 BBC 68 Burb Dually 54" Boggers on Rocks
 

Thanks man! Yea with the leaf springs it just sat a little too tall ha! Where the rear tire sits in the wheelwell thats just a little bit lower than ride height.

In regards to paint sche, i like the idea of the original two tone, it was a light blue and white so im definitely considering that. At the end if the day i want a paint color that is going to be suddle but clean, the truck is obvously radical in its own reich and i dont wanna have a crazy paint job that will take away from the fab work ect. Thanks for the tips man, keep the ideas comming!

Heres kinda what i was refering to in regards to not flowing well (in my opinion ofcorse!) like they do on step sides. IMO it looks like a brick mounted to the bed where as the quarters i have kinda flow out. Idk feel free to agree/disagree.
