body decals & roll bar

[Rob M]

I'm rebuilding a 92 Comanche Eliminator. The body work is about done, with the paint coming up soon. I'm having a real hard time finding the original body decals, and roll bar. The decals start at the front of the door and go to the end of the truck. They are what I've heard called the fade away style. The truck is turning out great and is going to look mostly stock with the exception of rims,tires and bumpers. I've checked with a few Jeep dealers who told me the decals are no longer in stock, so I hope someone might know an after market source. I could get a roll bar made , but would prefer a stock roll bar (short box). Anybody out there have any ideas where I can find these things ?

every once in a while i see comanche decals on ebay, they usually come and go

the decals arent out there, to my knowledge. I'm gonna be starting my very own 92 eliminator restore in spring. I'm having a local decal business make and apply them to my truck.

i think you can still find the stickers on ebay....

I also looked everywhere for decals but was unsucessful. The only decals I found in my search was the "Jeep" on the tailgate and I found one vendor that had the old "SporTruck" but nothing else. The body shop ended up finding a sign guy that made stickers for it. They looked exactly like the originals. I was very pleased.

 

Not to discourage you and keep in mind i have limited knowlege on the subject. But if you look at my truck on the signature, you will notice the stock on my decals were a solid color (all black). I am guessing yours are not. That would make it a completely different challenge in my opinion. You may need to take it to a custom painter but I would certainly talk to a sign guy too. Take pleanty of photos.

 

Regarding the roll bar, you just have to keep your eye open for a used one. They show up here once in awhile.

as far as the roll bar, ones out of trucks about the same size as the mj can work nicely. I'm not 100% sure what ones and years but someone should chime in with better info :thumbsup: post pics of that truck up to!

A similar thread was started a while back, but nothing seemed to come of it. I pm'ed the author and let him know of a dealership that had NOS OEM decals (one side only tho) to use as a template instead of trying to trace the side of a truck. So they are still out there...just few and far between.

The decals I need look just like the ones in the pics posted by "Red Mistress". :banana:

Also in reply to Red Mistress, my Comanche will be painted the original black, in fact everything on my baby will be black. :clapping:

Lets see some "before" pics so the "after" pics will be more impressive. :clapping:

 

92 Eliminator is da... chit. :chillin:

[Rob M]

I'll post pics as soon as I can get them. The guy doing the body & paint is about 50 miles from me. A bit depressing about availability of stock decals kind of hoping they might still be out there somewhere. :mad:

To; 1999 MJ I'm located in southern Colorado just a couple miles north of New Mexico I would be real interested if it's in good shape. Is it an original or one made to fit a short box Mj ?

[1999MJ]

it's a factory roll bar. came out of my 88 chief short bed. It's in great shape. Just a little sun faded and could use a quick coat of paint.

[Rob M]

I would be really interested if we could come to an agreement on shipping and payment, don't know if UPS would ship something of that size. Also would you have any pics of the roll bar, thanks :cheers:

I'll get you a couple pictures tomorrow

Thanks, faded paint is not a problem, it will be repainted with the paint going on the truck. A couple of pics would be great.
