It might look like a step backward, but the Holy Truck is now at another shop for cosmetics, which has turned into a complete respray and replacement of rear passenger door.

I’m jealous of your access to Cruisers, parts, and that cheap, but dependable labor!

Then I won't tell you about the 1999 Model HZJ105 purportedly with 99k km that should be arriving in the next few days...but here is a photo or two...
But back on the Holy Truck, it was painted just two years ago and I was thinking of just a touch up of the paint and focus on the interior, but ended up saying go ahead at a new shop recommended by the Ancient Swede who had had a really good experience with his English supercar repaint. I figured I would just let the shop use their judgement. The quote is within my pain threshold and my son had such a positive reaction to the truck that I thought I would do the best I can do.

Given the interest, here is a sample of parts costs here in Dubai from the latest Holy Truck invoice, which seems to have become a religious pilgramage at this point.
Divide by 3.67 to get USD. The zinc plating was first rate and we did some big structural parts under the dash and they look really, really nice.

We are getting pretty close on the Holy Truck. It is back from body and paint and I am finishing the interior.
I am going to use some BMW cloth for the seat inserts.
Here are all four seats in the back of Mr. Blue ready to take to be redone somewhere North of Sharjah
I hope you all appreciate the elegant hold downs for the 3rd row seats in Mr. Blue the diesel 105.
I'm going to see if I can get some better plastic for the center console.
