Now got alot of things left to do, lift , tires, rear driveshaft etc etc
 
Got a line on a new Tan soft top for $600 locally, but not sure if tan would go well with my colors, any advice would be good. I am half color blind so it wouldnt bother me. lol.
 
Good job! looks 100% better than the mess you started with!

Tan with blue/white is gonna look crappy. I'd either wait for a white or black soft top or just order one new.

You didn't like the white paint on the half top from the factory?

Thxs, she sure does look better now theres no holes. I figured the tan top wouldn't look good either, just had to see if I have no sense of style still. You know typically white man, cant match colors, cant dance, cant jump sorta stuff. lol

Now the white paint on the roof was something I wanted kept, just seems the guy who painted her wanted to do things his way. I guess I can live with it for now. I'm just happy the rusty square tubing I had on the roof for lights is gone now, thinking about removing the push bar aswell yet. The painter re textured my cap aswell, previous paint job someone had it sanded smooth. I throw up more pics as I get the pig back together.
 
I say ditch the white... overcoat the insert white and cap with a tan that matches the softop... blue and tan looks good... but i'm biased, i hate white of any kind on a vehicle.... :o
 
that blue and tan wouldnt look bad.tell the guy he painted it wrong and you would like the white fixed to a tan color.i don know how it would contrast the white stripe in the middle though.with the top off it wouldnt look so bd wth the blue halftop and tan soft top though i think.
