Pullstart 63,204 #8 Posted February 2, 2021 Keep in mind too, the toolbox and fenders were an option from the factory. Yours may have been built without them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gero Grabichler 1 #9 Posted February 2, 2021 Yes but i think it looks very good and if I can get fenders for both rj58 I mount them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you have Rustoleum paint products in your stores you could consider Regal Red for the body and Almond for the wheels. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
