looks awesome. great job. I like the color choice, it sure looks good in the sun. the interior colors and upholstery go well together too.

 Gotta say I do like that idea. What I really like is that interior and the fact that you redid the stock seat beautifully rather than stick another seat in the truck. Man that just looks perfect and I wish a few would take note.

Re: Pretty much done
OH NO YOU’RE NOT! (Ha ha, kidding)
It looks great. I especially like the stock mirrors, that you left the wind wings and that (for once!) someone knew the original color & placement of the side badges! Such a sharp looking truck. HUGE congrats! What’s under the hood? Suspension?

Re: Pretty much done
Well thanks for all the kind words, under hood normal 350/350 trans, locar shifter, vintage air, retro sound stereo, still on leaf springs, power steering & front disc. I painted the interior but had the finish body work and exterior paint done. All new glass & emblems, had the grille re chromed. It had the engine and trans in when I bought it.
