Little Red 85 Build

[Silverback]

Certafit panels are cheap. Not sure if they sell them for an 85. But for my 91 they are $28. Which reminds me, I need two more.

They have them for an 85. I may pick up a couple myself for shits.

A-pillar seems to be in tact. I will know for sure when I attemp to put the doors back on.

Not my best work but it looks better than it did.

I gotta ask for all you true offroad rig owners, why care about smashes and scratches? Isn't the point to not care about cosmetics?

Not really is more of a do the doors and windows still work and is all the glass still there deal.

Glass? Windows? why the hell do you need those

It's the rain yes, you don't store these in a climate controlled garage but it is also dust. Those who say they can wheel without a windshield are either full of shit or have glass eyeballs. I'm betting they are full of shit.

My windshield is scratched to shit. Plus its got a nice crack. I debated kicking it out but I'll keep it in. Dust is the thing I hate. Granted with no doors I get dust anyhow but its worse without a windshield.

.........I debated kicking it out........

This is not as easy to actually do as it sounds. I tried kicking mine out, kicked it probably 50 times, Then Drew (IIRC?) kicked it another 50 times. We ended up cutting out the gasket. It looks so easy in the movies??

Kick was a relative term for for grab my big ass hammer and pry bar.

I think it was me who kicked it out?? Or both drew and me. I don't recall a whole lot. Was drunk on crown reserve.

That was fun to watch. Much harder than Hollywood makes it look.

Yeah, I ended up driving the "P" wagon around that night with no windshield. It was pretty chilly and even with glasses on, my eyes got all dried out... then there was the mud,
