ha no the tires are just dirty.
all it is is two coats of that rustoleum paint with washing it inbetween coats. id highly recommend this paint but a fan spray nozzle would have been very nice to have.

The green was awesome, but doing the black herc at the bottom really adds to the green...it looks freakin' sweet and you got to spend good quality time with your girl....priceless

You are going to hate to hear this.
Did you sand through any of the original paint under where the OD is? That flat paint is porous and anywhere there was bare steel under may start rusting. I used that stuff on my last truck and was running into that problem and I'm not in the rust belt.

Holy crap! That looks almost identical to my 85!! 
Although yours is in much better shape.
Here's the 1st night I had mine. Boy alot has changed on mine since then...
I sure hope your hurculiner doesn't turn dull like this one's did.
That would suck after all the hard work you put into it.
I Speedlined the rockers & cargo area of my 89 & it looks awesome. So I'm thinking about doing the entire outside * inside of the 85 next year. but we'll see.
click on the link in my sig to see more of my 85. I really need to update those albums cause it's got the chevy rears & rears up front, & marlin hi-steer & 33" MT's now...
sorry to sorta hi-jack....you've got a sweet rig!
Let me know if you ever plan to go to the Badlands here in Indiana, we're always looking for reasons to head over there!!
Cheers!

Any Leer dealer and most camper shell places sell the bracket. It just give you a place to put a standard gutter mount roof rack. The gutter on the fiberglass top will not suport much but the gutters on the cab are resonably sturdy.
