Been a long time since I've posted, great to see the forum is still alive and active. Here's my dilemma.
When I first bought my 69, Paragon was just starting to become popular, and I enjoyed the off road community so much my rig slowly became an off road only vehicle. Sheet metal got bent, rockers were replaced with rock skids, etc.
Getting older now, I'd like to take the rig back to a cruiser. I'm also the kind of person who Thinks, as long as I'm this far into it, I might as well...... (you fill in the blank)
The crux of my question is, I'd like to replace the tub. I keep looking at the bronco design uncut tub which looks fantastic, but the purist in me keeps looking at metal. Has anyone bought the JBG tub kit? I'm concerned that assembly from scratch is going to be painful and not sure how all the measurements will work out.
Also wanting input from the fiberglass tub owners, durability (stress cracks?, Paint issues, etc)
I am in the rusty north east and I'd like to stop worrying about rust repair each year.
