Some pictures to go with the video.


All the contenders lined up in a row! Left to right and just out of shot is Dark Amber by DNA paints and is a candy. 2016-2018 Jeep Tank Green. A green I saw on a 32 Ford Roadster. Jeep Sting-Gray, ( also know as Ceramic Gray or Destroyer Gray ). Nissan Dark Green Pearl. Jeep Eco Green Pearl. House of Kolor Pagan Gold over Black. And the winner is Harley Davidson Olive Gold Pearl.


Plastic mini bonnet to see how HD Olive Gold looks on a flatter plane.


Light coming though the clear roofing panel. More of the gold pearl showing. Shows up the defects in the plastic bonnet too, so will have to be done over very good prep work.


Direct sunlight.


Evening light.


Finally got the steering wheel back on! Got rid of the tan lower half and airbag centre and matched it to the stock black top leather. Never liked the look of a modern steering wheel in a older car, but works out alright when all the interior matches with it.


Factory electric leather and heated seats bolted down to the donor floor for the first time. Exactly the right amount of room for my 191cm or 6'3" frame. I adjusted the seats to where I was comfortable before pulling down the donor and marked the floor to how long I wanted to make the cab. Seat height to top of the windscreen is the same as my KK Cherokee daily driver.


Console bolted right back into the factory mounts. The modules that were mounted under the donor back seats, I fitted inside the back of the console where the optional rear seat DVD player went.

I like the colour, should look very nice when done. The interior looks very good too, a bit nicer than the WJ interior

Many thanks mate.
When I was choosing a donor for this project, I looked for an interior that suited the look I was after as well. Got to think a head, even if it takes 12 years before you use it!
