Re: 72 Plaid Sub

Here's some pics from the Gitdown, the hotel, and Goodguys Southwest 2017. My brothers 66 Chevy next to the suburban was our grandfathers truck. It had been about 30 years since I rode in that truck. Such a cool weekend.

Re: 72 Plaid Sub

In early 2018 I decided the burb needed to be a full blown show vehicle. So, I blew it all apart again and had the body blasted to bare metal.

Re: 72 Plaid Sub

Funny after having a full blown show paint job I'm going the other way, with my suburban build. We always want what we don't have right....What colors you have in mind?

Going back with the same blue and white, but looking for a nice metallic blue now.

Thanks LockDoc. If the paint was original I would have left it. It was a repaint about 20 years ago and I just wanted it to look better.
