[i would probably (if i were you) buy a can of rock guard from car quest and go over the wheel wells at least to fill in the thinner areas. This stuff is cheap, under $10/can.[/quote]
I just figured it would cover more. The box said it covers a small box size truck box. So I figured I would have enough to do the floor and underneath as well.
I'm going to get another can to do the underneath and the rock rails. This time I'm going to roll it on, so I will touch up the thinner sections for good coverage.

even the dupont version of the dyi box liners stuff is a bit cheaper. i think it was $60 @ napa ( in digby)for a gallon. or watch ct, they'll have the complete kit for around $89. i picked one up last year, but haven't got around to putting it on my truck box yet

For what I have been reading the DuPont bed liner is crap it peels off in a year or so and the prep was done. just what I've been reading

I towed it home today so I can install interior. It was growing too old at the shop so I brought it home for a while and I can work on it at home here a little more. I'm getting some more liner and rolling it on the underneath and rock rails and up part of the doors.Then its back to the shop to install diffs, lift, brakes and get it running. I haven't started it yet but its suppose to have a skip and running rough bet that is for later.

Well I did it again. Forgot the stupid camera. I really need to keep it in the truck. I went to my donor XJ to retrieve the interior. So all you have to do is imagine a XJ interior in tact and then imagine it totally bare. From the dash to tailgate. I took it all even the locks, door rubbers, and latches. Now just imagine the back of the Comanche rounded up with all the parts. I even got the antenna. lol Now the real work begins lol

sorry to side track here, but i am looking to line my tub some time soon, where can you buy hippo liner? i have read a lot and i think a 2 part solution is what i am looking for.. maybe herculiner, but hippo is supposedly cheaper and last great!
Thanks.

Hi guys Sorry no progress on the notchback for a while.Thought if I brought it home I would get some more done. Well I was wrong. The wife ended up working a crap-load of hours so no time to work gotta look after the rug-rats. So that said its gonna be at least 2 weeks of no progress (unless I can drug the kids) lol JUST KIDDING cause the wife is too busy. Any way I will post progress wen I can. Man its killing me to walk by and do nothing on the Heep but the end is near. Oh man are you kidding me the end is far from near I gotta get this thing done gotta go wheel-in in it and get the thing dirty. Later: Darren

I used Maguires interior and carpet cleaner and lots of Armer-all. I will post the clean pictures soon. As for getting out wheelin soon thats a good idea. I'm trying to use my free time to get this project done. Its starting to get long in the tooth.
