    I also have good info on a rubber edge guard with a long flange on one side. I put it all the way around the tail light housing. It looks original. It is in my build thread (Another 70 wagoneer) Sorry I can't find the page right now. Satellite phone and internet guy is here and I need to shut down for the conversion.

    Some good solutions posted though....

        I found it on your build thread.

        1/32" Rubber Edge Trim 69J 1/32 X 1/2 & 1/8 Black U Channel

        I'll try both and see which I like best.

        Thanks!

              I meant Kaiserjeeps thread since he mentioned trying to find it but that's good too.

                Makes sense.

                I have been working on this for a friend in Seattle. It's a C model. It really needed a new cab, but the owner wanted to save it despite the costs and time involved. Sentimental value speaks miles sometimes. There wont be much floor metal left. I plan on a bed panel for a blazer to be custom fit. Any better ideas? I had to

                  Thanks for finding that info. I had to hang up and go help the satellite install guy dig a hole first in snow then frozen ground. I'm on a new improved system now. That edge guard was awesome to work with and looked super. You will have to pie cut the inner flange to make the serious corners. Like the front most forward part of the chrome housing. Other than that, it was the cats meow.
