Got my hubcap rings welded on and front caps secure. Thought I had rear caps, but I must've been lying to myself. Plus I forgot that I needed a ring for the spare so I will be ordering another. Also got my trans to t-case bypass hose installed along with some tailgate chain covers I got off of Etsy.

Picked up 5 Firestone MT2 tires chambered in 255/75/17 yesterday for $600. Heep guy put bro wheels and tires on. They have 50 miles on them. Figured it was time to paint the wheels with the old tires so I didn't have to tape off around the new tires after they are mounted.

After weeks of trying to get the timing and carb dialed in, I finally got it running great. Lean drop on the carb has it idling at 650 rpm. Took it for a short drive just to get it up to temp. Alignment is next. Work has begun on a hard top for this winter.
The wheels and tires turned out fantastic. Factory caps in those wheels are

Thanks. I'm going to go a couple shades darker on the paint. Just a bit too light for me.The wheels and tires turned out fantastic. Factory caps in those wheels are
Looks great as is, darker won’t hurt.
I’m just over here hoping my spring green 40 turns out half as good as this one has. My hard top is f’d but seeing yours run around topless looks so damn good.
That looks amazing Eric!

Thanks for the kind words, man. My hard top is in decent shape. Ordered a new rain gutter yesterday for it. Got some fiberglass work to do to it as well.

If you do the rain gutter instal call me I have wanted to do that on mine but have no idea how to do the rivets other than making a press mold to crush the rivets in place with a mushrooom top.

Got the heater cleaned up and painted today. Got to get some heater hose and get some coolant running through it before winter really gets here. Also, some goodies showed up this week. New Bilstiens and my rain gutter from CCOT. May start mocking it up tomorrow. @1MOA come on by if you want to check it out.

Doors are painted and will be buffed out a bit to reveal some primer to match the rest of this hooptie. Put the soft top back on and put the hard top on hold for a bit. Also added some Bilstiens for comfort.
Once I get this thing aligned, it's ready to drive. Can't say it's done, but it's done! I'm happy with how it turned out. Got a long range tank that has to go in it and have to secure the Tuffy console I got on black Friday.
So after you paint the doors, you scratch them!
