Wheelhouse rj 35 14 #8 Posted March 21, 2016 It dose look better in the picture. It's going to stay that way for at least the next year. I don't know what to do about the front tires, they are dry rotted bad but I can't find the safe tread. It needs all 4 tires I was thing with going with all ag tired. If anyone has any suggestions I'm always looking for advice. Thank you all! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JPWH 6,145 #9 Posted March 21, 2016 Welcome to RS. Good looking . If your tires hold air go ahead and use it as is for a while. You may see something you like. If your looking for performance for particular situations do some research through the posts here and find out what the experts have to say. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevebo-(Moderator) 8,363 #12 Posted March 21, 2016 Spray some WD-40 on it, you will like what you see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wheelhouse rj 35 14 #13 Posted March 21, 2016 That is with wd 40 and 0000 steel wool. The hood was done. I didn't do the seat yet. You can see the difference. there is just no paint on left on it. The last picture makes it look red. The one before that is a lot closer to what it really is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
