I found this when browsing eBay. I'd be curious to see how it looks on the underside, but wow. Looks almost like it just rolled out of the plant.

Still, I wouldn't spend $10k for a D1, but if somebody could make a case, this might be the one.

I am pretty sure it looks spotless on the underside.
There are many reasons for clean Southwestern trucks to inch ahead of L319/320/322.

Wow, I bought my 1995 from single owner with 76k bone stock 2 years ago for $2300... Glad these D1's are turning into investments!

Ooh, I like. All the ArmorAll just makes it look so sexy and slippery.

The brush bar look a little tweaked to me as well. Looks like it’s sitting off center slightly to the passenger side. Very nice looking D1, however.

That thing looks clean. The fit and finish some of you guys are seeing was just normal. Right out of the factory. Somebody should go buy that. Offer him 7,500

We used to have to bend those straight after installing them. They came pre-bent. No need to go out and fuck it up yourself.

I had the "factory" rear light guards on my first RR.
They were made of some weird fiberous, plasticy shit.
Sun faded pretty quick like.
The rear lenses they were protecting were about $125 each.
The guards were about $300 each.
I bumped into something; the guard broke, then broke the rear lens.
Thanks, ya fuck!

Mr. D1 does look clean and shiney.
Yay, ArmorAll!

Is the stereo supposed to sit so high?

Mine looks to sit more flush:

Which fail at the seam between the two halves. Mine had it too. Took a little while to figure our where the antifreeze scent was coming from...

I bought a replacement/upgrade HD clear plastic coolant reservoir from Will Tillery for cheap. Easy swap and small investment for peace of mind.
