But that is still a pretty sweet truck. I'd be torn if I had an all original anything in that good of shape!

Thanks! I have to say the truck rides really good. As for the airbags, this is my first vehicle with them and I am still sceptical. That all original is really nice, but since mine was a basket case I figured it would make a nice custom!

Still goes to show the 67-72 division effect is still going strong (mentioned it before voting even started in the nomination thread for this month's entries...) And shows VERY few of the active members vote in TOTM....

Thanks Jonathan! The division is a deal breaker, and could be handled a bit differently but it is what it is. We need to bring attention to the active members about TOTM and I tried to on this months contest.

Gonna do a little picture postin this weekend. I installed new window roller handles and inside door handles along with the sill plates and hopefully a couple of other things by this weekend. Going to the courthouse this Friday to get all of the necessary paperwork for it plus insurance so I can take it for a spin this weekend too.

I'm going to talk with the guy who did Chris' seat to see what kind of deal I can get. If he is a little cheaper than the $800 to $1100 I have been quoted then I'll let him do it. May even leave them with him this weekend. I am buying extra material so I can do the rest of the interior myself, got a little experience in that area. Once the seats are done the rest of the interior shouldn't take but a couple of days. Still gotta get my Blazer console.

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
 
Yep, it's an actual plate that can be purchased and is completely legal in the State of Texas! I have been wanting this one for about a year and I am almost to the point that I need it. So in a couple of weeks my order goes in.

I would like to know what this is worth. It has a crack at the back as you can see. Otherwise everything is there and intact, it is in good shape. All of the nuts and bolts are factory and have never been removed. The trim and emblem are in good shape, just dirty.

With the bolts and a good trim ring/emblem and only the one crack. Assuming the latch is good and is the limiting strap still there inside? If it's all there probably 125-150. Fix the one crack, strip and paint/polish and it's a $300 console...

Yep, strap is inside and the roller latch. The chrome hinge inside is in great shape. The crack is clean, no material missing so it will be a easy fix. Got it for $70 so guess I did do pretty good. Thanks Jonathan! I'll be following your console cleanup how-to and make it all nice.

I am waiting for some swatches to come in from a fabric wholesaler, should be in this week. I want to make the right choice on color and texture. Maybe this weekend!
