the previous owner did the body and paint work and teh line where the colors meet isnt very strait... and i was thinking a pin strip would would fix it up.... and as u can see from the pics... i have 3 jeeps and a race truck to dump money in.... and i just got my ands on a mid 70s j-10 honcho! i dont need it and i never drive it it jsut sits.... i would rather some1 who would appriciate it and give it alot more attention than i have get their hands on it... its a super clean truck and i have done alot to it.... but it still needs alot.... i jsut have to many other projects.... i was gonna do the pinstrip clean it up. finsh up the interior a bit. it has no headliner or capret... jsut a few lil things like that.

Since the chrome is still very sharp maybe a metallic silver pinstripe.

Thanks guys and i think im gonna go with silver i went and bought some of the stick on pinstripping form oreilys in a couple diff colors and put them on and silver def look the best it complements the silver dash overlay. and the chrome well. and yes i have more money than i care to mention invested in taht cj-7 and i def rolled it... im tryin to figure out what im gonna do with it.... its has a 500hp sbc sm465 tranny d300 with 4:1 built axles with detroits 4.11s and chormoly axles i have completly restored it i bought the jeep in pieces and put the whole thing togather it took me about 3 yrs to complete. i drove it for 2 yrs and then rolled showin off... but it was a lesson learned... im just tryin to figure out what todo with it. jeep tubs are sooo expensive so i dunno if im gonna rebuild it or part it out.....

Do you still have it?
What are you asking for it?
Been looking for something like that for my business truck.
Man that would be a eye cather up here!
