Wow! Wish I had the skills to paint my truck like yours!
Spanish trails are narrow, my truck seems not blue but blue with white scratches...
You've left the trucks like they were new, very good job!
Wanna paint mine?

wow!! Nice work!! I always wondered what these tops would look like shiny & smooth!!! Were your steel window trim pieces (under the top's front window) salvageable??
Keep the pics coming!! Can't wait to see it together!!

Well as i wait to get some time to finish my runner im going to post pics of the next rig
Yeah it looks ok far away but someone must of hated the preveis owners key marks all over it and well it was in a wreck and not fixed right only paid $1000 for it
this one is going to be a fix the dents mask it and spray it with black enamel. not sure if the top is going to be done. also i have some white pearl that i think might look good in the black
any suggestions ?

Putting that pearl in the black paint would be awesome, but if you get a scratch in it or need to color match for some reason, wouldn't it be a lot harder than just plain black?

Man you do nice work. I am thinking about painting my truck (starting to rust on the passenger side with holes in the fender and lower panel of cab). Not sure if I want to tackle a project like that though. Your runner is sweet. can't wait to see more photos!
