Re: Wash day

Both trucks looks great!. How long do you want to be without the blazer if it went in for paint? Would you be happy if someone got a pretty close match on the patches and did some alignment on the trim and panels? Its up to you, and your wallet. Or Just Drive it.

Thanks, I plan to hold on to both and pass them along to my sons. I hope they enjoy them as much as I have!

Re: Wash day

Paint is on, trim going on over the next few days. I couldn't stand the medium olive color when I first bought this truck, but now I love it. It seems to grow on you over time.

I've done that too. Before I got mine I knew it had Dark Saddle interior and thought for sure that I would change it black. After cleaning everything (it had been sitting for a long time), I thought there is no way I'm going with anything other than dark saddle.
