Where you get these from?

@gotoy I ordered them via @c2dfj45. I would contact him and he can either help or point you in the right direction.

Thanks, I believe they are from Australia.

Correct. All the cool 70 series stuff is from Australia.

@digitalbuck looks great. That is not an easy job. Should really make a difference. @SNLC just finished installed Second Skin in my 80 series diesel. Definitely cuts down on rattles. What part of SW Florida are you in?

East Florida. Ft Pierce. My main objective is to cut some road noise / tire noise. Rattles aren't bad in this one, gratefully!

Big day. The truck is in the paint booth as I am typing this up.

Time for some reassembly. @ca18sean dropped off the new OEM gaskets and weatherstripping this morning (courtesy of @Onur).

Why didn’t you go green on the C pillar?

We were actually just discussing that. Looks like some additional work on their part......

John caught that quickly too when I sent the pics over this morning. I personally think it might look cool to have everything black around the windows and doors, but on a truck so nice and OEM as this one green is the way to go. I had the painter respray that little bit, he said he knew the door tops and front trim were black and assumed the rest of the truck was too. Oh well, little hiccup, no big deal can't wait to see it outside in the sunlight!

The color looks great, I also need a respray. Tell them to keep the extra paint and ill send mine down

 

[ca18sean]

Much better.

I kind of liked the black/floating roof look.

Yea I considered leaving it for a minute. It looks cool. Was afraid though of what it would look like assembled. And I already knew I liked it green. Just opted to go OEM.

 

[SNLC]

Having done a a lot of work on this Cruiser, it’s a real nice one. It just needed some body work and paint love.

Looks real good now.

Cheers

 

[jomelo]

Assembling is coming along nicely.

 

[OGBeno]

Wow.

 

[jomelo]

Wow.

Yea....that driver side is MAJOR improvement.

 

[digitalbuck]

That is gorgeous.
