I bought a 10 x 10 piece of 60 mil Firestone EPDM roofing on amazon for 97 bucks. 50 year guarantee. Looks like it will stretch nicely on the rear corners. It came on Friday and I plan to get a couple friends over tomorrow because it will be almost 90 in the afternoon. I also picked up a 'J' metal drip rail from an RV place, aluminum with black powder coat. It is 1 1/8" high and has holes on 6" centers. This was 32 bucks for each 16' section. I found some black #8 x 1" screws on amazon to fasten it with. The long grain vinyl I can find is 2" too narrow for my truck woodie and so I would need two pieces with a seam. Reproduction woodie gutters are something like 600.00 and too short. I will get some photos once it's on. Got my front fenders on today. Ran out of daylight to get the hood back on but that is close. Finally starting to look like a car. Or is it a truck?
