Rebuilt 91 German Comanche

[SteveW155]

First test with the Mazda B2500 Hardtop. Look‘s good and fits perfect. 
 

Looks fantastic! Which year model B2500 did it come off?

[tgcj]

I don‘t no, sorry. 

I buy it only because it have the right mesurement.

And the look of the Manche without the rollbar look‘s good, too.

After a few weeks I started with the hatdtop. 

Cleaned all, make it stiffer and start to paint the inside in a light grey.

Is the vinyl something that could be used to covered a worn and cracked dashboard?  Some that is smooth

I worked a little bit at the Manche the last weeks. Made a little Roof Rack.

Here it is:

And some new original decals:

The roof rack turned out nicely!  Did you build it from scratch or did you modify an existing rack to fit? 

 

  The new emblems reminds me that I need to add the 4X4 emblems to my MJ one of these days.

Love this build! That is a good looking truck. How is the wrap holding up?

The color looks great. I've been debating on painting my truck red or grey and I sure like the way your truck looks!

 It‘s made complet new from 20mm tubings. Only the brackets are from “Thule“ to fix it.

The wrap hold pretty good. Two years now without problems. 

I only had to fix a small pice on the roof. There was the underground not good. But it works good and it looks good again. 

I would do it again.

Good to know. I've seen some business trucks wrapped and always wondered about longevity. I will definitely look into it now. Thank you
