New interior side panels (1 Viewer)

[Gabbo]

I don't ever haul anything dirty, unless it's a passenger. I am not a fan of dogs, and I haven't been fishing for who knows how long. I would have shagged the back of the back seat, but I ran out of left-over carpet. The front seats sport some ratty sheep skin covers that I would love to replace... but they're pricey for someone cheap like me.
The rear window washer didn't even work so I just removed it. I'll post a pic a little later today of what I did to the tailgate.

The nasty old carpet recently came off the tailgate, and the "holy crap" handle got a re-paint. The bar was there when I bought the truck, but I like it.

Is that bar on your tail gate to keep items from hitting the glass or what?

 

[sirenmoses]

yea, show us a snap w/the tailgate secured...

 

[Exiled]

That bar is OEM, it just didn't make it on many US-sec 60s (mostly early ones).

 

[Gabbo]

The Bar doesn't even come up to the glass when the back is closed up. I'll post another picture later today of it closed from the inside.

i still don't get that handle. If it was OEM what was the design rational. not that i don't want one.

i like the bar! first thing i'm thinking it would bi nice when hauling big lang things inside the car with the back seats up, and the rear window up! Then you can strap stuff down to the bar. i will definatly make mysef one!

Do we all know what the OEM porpoise was for this bar?.........................Not that I dont want one either.
Does anyone know the part name for this too??
Rear gate safety bar?..........Cargo secure bar?

 

[Gabbo]

I wish I knew. Sorry man.
But hey, since this thread is back from the dead I will post pics of how I access my rear washer bottle (since I fixed it)

 

[sirenmoses]

^ that is da bling. Only to be expected in the Shaggy Sixty though.

x2. My guess is: prevent dingos/coyotes/dogs from entering via dropgate, or snapping their legs when they do, which means it's off my mod list. But still da shiznitz.


props to Norway for the minor zombification. Pix + write-up on the build or it didn't happen.

To stay in the "Shaggin Wagon" theme...

Um....reverse cowgirl/leg support bar?

Sorry, couldn't help it.


I seem to remember another thread about that bar. A cargo support/tie down for items that are long and need to stick out the back.

Cool! I need to do something similar to mine. I would like to use 1/4" sheets of plastic or maybe lexan?

diebond works excellent! pick it up from a sign supply place. i actually just backed the existing panels with this and viola! speakers are sturdy.

Where'd you get that?

 

[Gabbo]

Checker I think. For a Ford or something... but I made it work.
