Brought home a Limo 89 R3500 Crew 3+3

I just picked up a 89 R3500 Crew Cab 3+3 with a 454 and a 4 speed for 1000. The body is pretty nice , The front window is broke it hit turkey. What I find odd is that it is the old body style. I was wondering what it would look like with a gunmetal/ black two tone , or a pearl white.

Anybody have and pics , I couldnt find any. I get some pics of mine when I get the snow and tree sap of it. Thanks all

The crew cabs, Suburbans and Blazers/Jimmys all kept the square bodystyle through the '91 model year.

I'll move this one to the correct forum for you.

Not exactly gunmetal gray and black but close. I've often wished I would have went darker though.

I was lookin around for headers cause one on the manifold are cracked. I cant seem to find any. What is the diff from say a 79 3/4 ton to my 89 r 1 ton. I can seem to find headers and they are the same square body.

This is not the greatest pic and not a crew but it is gunmetal/black.
