How about some pics of 88-98 Part II

[1badgmc]

Yeah. It came together well. I was really loving the retro '90s vibe with the paint and Vette wheels.

Heres some pics of my '96 yesterday morning. Having fun with some snow

Thought I'd share these...

My 98 was in our display at an indoor show this weekend even though it's not really a "show truck" but she did look good under the lights...

That's a sad story and a nice truck. Everything follows the same theme.

JWall, your trucks look good as always...just got done drooling over the pics in your 76 thread.

I love the old school look with the chrome wheels and moon covers.

Sweet. Do you have any more pictures?

[lowlife4life]

With the shocks limiting the rear travel. Just a simple two link kep all smog stuff and flipped it towards engine to clear the tires

[lowlife4life]

I can't find the pics I wanted. Ended up shaving down a gtp power mirror to fit the door. It fit and looked like it was made for it

I put some new rollers on the burban last year and am just now getting around to posting a pic.

specs are:

Coys C-56 chrome
18x8 w/ 4.5" backspace
225/50 front tires
255/45 rear tires


I also put Belltech rear shackles on the rear that dropped the rear another 3/4" or so.

^ This. That's a damn nice looking Suburban. I like that you've kept the old grille too. It's refreshing to see the older grilles these days when everyone wants to update.

Thanks guys. Your comments tell me I hit the look I was going for. I like the clean "street rod" look if you will. I do have a few things I am planning to redo in the near future like switching back to the stock hood and working over the taillights to get rid of the reverse lights.

badgmc: Your comment about the grille is exactly why I put the old style grille back in. I originally built the burb after hitting a deer and put a 94-up GMC grille in it. When I hit Bambi #2 a year later I decided that you never see these trucks with the 88-93 grille anymore so that's what I put in. To me they also look cleaner and flow with this body style better.

I wouldn't change what I've done with my truck for the world, but I'd like to get my hands on another regular cab and build it more as a clean daily driver and go with the '88-'93 GMC grille.

My plan on my '88, is the make the bumpers, wheels, grill, all black chrome.
Re paint the body, to a one-color, factory brown....... "clean / mean "...

I like that plan.

Updated pic. Got some new rims. They are a pretty popular wheel, but I like the low-maintenance of the powdercoat finish and they go will with the paint color.
