83 sb 4x4
Hello, Im new here. My 83 silverado was bought by me new in 83. Its rarely out in the winter unless my van is broken down,, 67,000 on the clock. Its all stock, the truck has never had a hole drilled in it. Yes I will post some pics soon , they are on a crashed computer that I need to get onlne. But I promise some good pics for you guys. My questions are about a couple parts that I would like to find in good shape. One is the 4x4 shift nob, mines got a crack in it from just sitting, its about the size of a cue ball only black. Also I need a drivers side door pillar interior molding piece. The one near the windshield.Red, That too decided to crack from sitting. And the last thing I need help with is the interior roof velour.its sagging very badly, Its like a bed sheet hanging down. Im thinking that there must be a way to take it out and re glue it. My truck has been mostly used for camping in my younger days,then I purchased a motor home and just put the truck away. She rides good, It even has original exhaust on it. I also have a clamped on truck cap that was made just for this truck in 83.. Its only a 305ci but it keeps up ok.... Now I thank you for your help and I will go work on getting some pics posted .. Thanks Al

Re: 83 sb 4x4
LMC should have those pieces youll have to redye the pillar piece.. we pull down the headliner and use the spray adhesieve that ya get in the auto parts store to reglue the headliner.. ofg course youll have to scrape all the foam glue off of there

Thank you Bob, who is LMC? Im hoping to find a used pillar trim so i don't have to try to dye it. Spray adhesive should work on the liner,

Re: 83 sb 4x4
The website he's referring to is www.lmctruck.com . They have every nut, bolt, and screw for our trucks. Most of their stuff is really nice, too.
