Very Nice.. I Could count on one hand how many runners I've seen that clean. Let us know how it runs and drives once you get it home

WhiteKnight

From what i can tell it runs pretty good. It was an hour drive and i got about 3/4 the way back before i got pulled over. im excited about it tho. i cant wait to get it to the house.

"Location: Effingham, Ga"

Is that a fictional location? If not, that's effing(ham) hilarious~

Is the interior as clean as the exterior? I'm not much for the 4 door versions but have to admit that that rig is freaking clean looking.

Finally got around to doin some work on this thing. Painted the wheels black which i am very pleased with.

Junkers88

Any new plans for it? Going to wheel it or keep it clean and use it as a daily driver? Both perhaps??

WhiteKnight

i plan to keep it clean for the most part. itll see some mud every now and then. id love to paint it black when funds permit. the cargo areas in pretty bad shape so thatll be next.

Junkers88

Just out of curiosity why do you want to paint it? From the pictures it looks like the paint is in pretty good shape. A good rubbing compound and wax would be cheaper than paint, and a hell of a lot easier as far as prep work goes.

What's up with the cargo area? Is the interior in bad shape?

WhiteKnight

the clear coats flaking in some spots and im a big fan of black. but your right about the wax being cheaper and easier, thats why i havent painted it yet. and the interior is in great shape except for the cargo area. the original owner spilled paint in the back. other than thats its great.

Junkers88

Just as an FYI I was considering painting mine last year since the original paint (1989) was all green and faded. I bought some Wicked compound and wax and over the course of about 2 hours my rig was back to the Royal Blue metallic that it started out as, the fenders looked as good as the interior paint if that says anything.

Spilled paint huh? If it's a water based paint you might be able to clean it out. If it's an oil base there has got to be a way to clean it with a spray or paint thinner or something that won't rat the truck paint.

WhiteKnight

thanks ill have to check into that. and im thinking about herculining the floor of the cargo area.

The wheels painted black look sickk! Congrats on the new truck.

But, the lettering on the tire cracked me up ... sorry! I havn't seen any "Land Terrains" ... wonder how they differ from All-terrain, Mud-terrain, long trail, etc....

hunter4runner

Meth Capitol of Georgia northwest of Savannah, Ga we call it Methingham! LOL

Land Terrians are more highway loving Long Trails, the OG Long Trails not the new ones

WhiteKnight

That would be correct lol

Warning!!

Get that rig with those tires to your nearest reputable BFG Shop, they were recalled and you might just get a new set of 5 brand new TA/KO's out of the deal.

Print this up and bring it in with you: http://www.bfgoodrichtires.com/bfgapp/news/recall.jsp

The # to call BFG is there too and all you need to do is read the DOT code off the tire's sidewall.
