Dang man! That looks like a blast!It’s been a fun summer with the Ol black Jeep. Made a dune trip, three sand drags events, local car show and have a 1/8 asphalt race in about a week. Lost the 383 after the sand dune trip so I put the 427 back in.

Well, here's an interesting update on this project: I was finally going to have the cargo area behind the 2nd row seating sprayed with bed liner, BUT...I found this site that details how toxic fumes are perpetually given off from bed liners and they shouldn't be used internally. They offer a different product that is water based for internal use that is nontoxic.I have an opinion question for everyone: my 1990 square body that I've posted early in this thread has recently had some weatherstrip/water issues in the rear interior. Currently I have the carpet out and have cleaned it and have cut new floor insulation/padding for under the carpet since the old stuff was soaked.
I'm toying with the idea of not putting the insulation/padding and carpet back in, and instead having a bed liner sprayed in the back end so I don't have to worry about carpet getting dirty and wet anymore. Plus, the rear heater in these old square bodies are prone to leak antifreeze (which mine has) and cause carpet/insulation problems also.
If I do the spray in bed liner, I'll keep the carpet since it is original, but what are your thoughts? Reinstall the carpet or spray in bed liner? I can't decide...
That’s pretty crazy! I know I’ve seen jeeps with that sprayed on the interior floors.Well, here's an interesting update on this project: I was finally going to have the cargo area behind the 2nd row seating sprayed with bed liner, BUT...I found this site that details how toxic fumes are perpetually given off from bed liners and they shouldn't be used internally.

Anyone else ever heard of this??? Here is their website detailing why most bed liners are cancer-causing due to their make-up: https://raybuck.com/bed-liner-inside-truck-cab/
Me too....I wonder if the problem is universal with all spray on liners or not?That’s pretty crazy! I know I’ve seen jeeps with that sprayed on the interior floors.
