keep the bezel black, i reckon white would stick out like a sore thumb. not sure about the hinges though, i think both them and the kick vents would be better in blue.
 
I like the black hinges and am ok with a black bezel. I dont think white would look bad tho and leave everything else like it is.

It's your truck.
 
Lol!!!
Thanks for the input gents, but... I'm kinda likin the way she is with the black hinges and all.
Like I said though.... As far as the kick vents are concerned, they will be black temporarily. Next spring when I paint the doors, I'll shoot those too.
Have both the full doors and half doors to do. I'll work on those and get em prepped after everything is set with the rig running.

The window hinges black will look okay as long as the door hinges are black too, just my opinion. Maybe even get some black TJ flares for the rear wheel wells.

IMHO it's one of those thing you have to be all in for.

Et tu brute?!?!?


Lol!!!
 
Don't worry about the Paint(I like the black). I have painted everthing on my rig about four times.

Even had black flares on the rear as rusty suggested. They hung in there for a couple of years but after constant repair form rock rash/carnage, I gave up and bondoed the holes.

Matilda is looking like the sweet wench (no longer the another woman you have been spending all your time with) she was meant to be.
Happy trails to come.

Mark... I was just givin rusty some crap. Not really worried about the opinions being expressed re. The paint scheme. For that I'll do what I need to do.
Right now I'm just gettin everything done so she can run!!!!
I'm kinda bored with this part actually. :0
 
I need a cruiser fix or I will have to go out to the shop and look at mine and that always endes up with bolts on the floor and a mess.
 
This thread is lame...I'm ready for your next build to start.


What did you say it was going to be?










looks good man.

Just get that beauty running so you can wheel. Paint or no paint. Don't blame you for being bored--how long have you been doing this? It will be worth it when your smokin everthing on the trail.:banana::hillbilly:
 
Ready for Bronco Canyon

Next spring that is,look'n good, Bronco Canyon is in your back yard.

After Bronco Canyon (behind the Mustang Ranch :D) then shoot down the hill and run
Fordyce.

I loved Bronco Canyon, all the wild running Mustangs, flowers and steep canyon cliffs absolutely beautiful.
Just don't try to find it if you don't know where to look. :rolleyes: locked gate, gravel pit or 8 miles of nowhere...

Rusty, Rusty, Rusty. You know your going to end up back in a truck with a FWC this time. Especially after J- saw inside one. Resistance is futile. Heck, I might even make you a deal on my... Oh wait. That'd prove you... Never mind.


K- again, the rig looks great. You should be proud.
