Ok, so I have been working on a 73 full cab for about 7 months now. After blowing it apart and doing all the metal work on the front tub structure (bought a MIG an learned on this one), new sheet metal on front clip, floor pans, and various rust repair, I send the body off to paint. It has been there 5 months and just got back. Since I have rebuilt the driveline, sandblasted and coated the frame, etc. Here is where I started:
Some during shots:
The frame when I took it back up to body shop to put the body back on looked like this:
And here is the finished product. It was originally Durango tan, which I did not want to go back to, so I chose a dark british racing green with wimbledon white top. The pictures don't so it justice...I love it. Will look great with the parchment white interior. I did want it slightly lighter so I had them use a white sealer instead of black, which lightened up the dark green slightly. These pics show a blue tint that really isn't there.
Now my question...I ordered a set of vinyl floormats from ACC and it comes with a panel for the tailgate. How does it stay on? It has flaps on the ends and is stitched, but I have no idea how this thing stay on the tailgate?
My first bronco...is their tailgate trim I have to use (I have seen that before holding carpeting). Here is the matt sitting on my tailgate, I folded it over so you can see the flaps sewn in the back...but how do they work?
