1983 J10 Pris build

Post by 1983j-10 »

Hey guys, this build started 10 years ago when I decided to start the process of restoring my first vehicle after serving me well through high school. The project stalled several times with body shops deciding they would rather do collision work than repaint my Jeep. After sitting in a storage container for several years I found a shop that decided to take on the job. I went with Kona Blue off of the newer body style GT500s after seeing the color in person. Its now painted and is currently waiting for a custom set of the orange tones honcho decal set. I couldn't find anybody who made them for the long box trucks so I have a graphics company custom designing it for me as we speak. Ill post updated pictures as I can. Also I'm on the look out for some nice factory truck bumpers and a muscle grill surround thats cleaner then the one I have. Thanks

Wow! Looks like all the paint prep and bodywork paid off! Straight as an arrow! Really looking forward to seeing the graphics on a long bed! Another member was recently asking a similar question about long wheelbase J trucks but was interested in the Golden Eagle design.
