These are photos from the Ebay listing, i'll get some better ones this weekend, the only thing i think is letting it down, is the fact that the last owner painted it in under seal!?! is this normal? lol, cause of the nature of the truck and its prone to getting damaged, what does everyone paint their's with??

Looks alright

All u need Naw is some off-road tyres

I have sprayed my sj with landini tractor paint .but I should of rollered it on as rollering it gives it a thicker coat

Welcome.

Sprayed mine with cellulose. Only gives it a thin coat though. Gonna roller it next time with a harder wearing paint.

Nice truck mate! paint with roller comes out fine and holds up to branches and scrathes a bit better
