Re: What's next 2wd JIMMY?

Thanks NTR72GMC,
Had to go out to look & compare the two. I guess if I take the side trim pieces off I'll have some holes to fill & paint? The more I look at the bright trim piece that surrounds the top of the grill the more it grows on me.
The tops of the bed/side rails are ugly and rusty where the hard top sat particularly toward the rear. Are there ready made trim covers or will I have to make something? Maybe pick up bed rail protectors will cover 'em up if I trim them to fit.
I need to borrow my neighbor's little utility trailer or modify my garden wagon to move the top out from under my hoist. I need to buy or make a pulley block to lift & hang the top from the rafters in in my shop for storeage. Probably wouldn't hurt it to sit outside.... it's shiny red and bumpy... look better if it faded out.
