Project Wrangler is finally out of the body shop!
Here is a fewquick pics of my 1986 GMC Wrangler - brought back bone stock minus the billet grille but did mound stock GMC on the grille. I picked it up after 5 weeks of body/paint work. I had done all the mechanical and interior my self and then sent to the body shop. I had a show quality paint job completed. They wet sanded it for 9 hours and power polished it afterward. I will get better pics once the weather gets better out here. I spent all day yesterday doing a bed liner kit at home.
Colors are GM Cobalt Blue (Hendrick Motor Sports), and Cadillac Escalade Pearl White. |

Very nice. Blue looks almost purple in the tailgate shot.
Is the Wrangler a Canadian trim level or special edition?

Re: Project Wrangler is finally out of the body shop!
Do you have a paint code for that GM Cobalt blue? Or the year for it?

Re: Project Wrangler is finally out of the body shop!
Thanks for the comments guys. I am traveling for work in North Carolina right now but the Cobalt blue metallic is GM and it is the same color as Jimmy Johnson/Jeff Gordons blue on the Hendrick cars. It is actually a Sherwin Williams paint code ironically...... The white is simply a Cadillac Escalade white pearl.
The Wrangler special edition is a Canadian only option but it is basically a Sierra Classic with all the options with the addition of a leather wrapped steering wheel and a custom paint scheme that has a two tone strip that goes over the back of the cab. I liked the stock design but I like the classic blue/white/blue design I have now with the factory trim better so I went this route. |
