That's awesome!
I had the same issue with mine getting shipped. The guy the initially had lined up for the transport was deemed to be fraudulent, so I had to wait for the next shipped to become available.
Weird.
Installed a Black Dog Customs cargo divider/ rear curtain sealer. Fit is decent. It's a little short on the driver side, so you need to seal the ends with silicone or seam sealer. I used some black seam sealer I had laying around.
You gotta drill a bunch of 3/16 holes, and make sure to not go...
My shipper did the same thing. Told me it would be picked up within 8 days, but took 16 days. I didn't get charged any storage fees. When I asked the shipper about it, he claimed he's never run into anyone getting charged storage fees.
Who knows? Dealing with shippers can be annoying.
I've pre paid for delivery plenty of times. That's what I did with my Humvee, and I buy and sell a lot of cars all over the country and never had any issues.
Looks like you got a good truck! There's used 2 man stuff on ebay. Most people convert to a 4 man, so the 2 man stuff isn't too bad...
Ran a 5% eyebrow on the windshields today. It's about 4" long. They sit up higher on the window than the sun visors do when they're down. Looks damn good imo.
I need to get a better pic of it outside, but here's one right after I did them.
Hood is fixed, and custom made decals installed. Had someone reproduce the original markings in satin black. They blend in nicely, but are still visible.
I was in an awkward spot with the buffer, and stood it too much on its edge and burned the clear real good. Getting to the center of the hood on these things isn't as easy as you'd think lol
Just got done spraying the clear and blending it with UPOL #9 blending agent. Now I just gotta let it...
Had a little whoopsie while buffing the hood. Burned the clear a little, right smack dab in the middle of the hood. Not a huge deal, just gotta sand it back and blend in some color.
Finally able to get it in the sun, after seemingly endless rain. Looks pretty good. Still need to cut and buff, but I'd like the paint to be a little harder before doing it.
Also had the original hood and tailgate markings remade, and will go on the truck along with all the other original...
Going back together! Got the lights installed, along with my 24v H1 style marker light bar. Looks awesome! I tied it into the running light wire off the back of the headlight switch.
