now the work starts. need a pair of arm rests and a new steering wheel. any good vendors you can recomend? also valve cover gaskets and engine detail. would really like to get rid of those ugly wheel. what didthe truck come with stock? or should i go with custom wheels

[oldertruckfan]

spid says it came with wheel covers, but there's a variety of different 5 lug wheels you could go with depending on the look you want to get across. (welcome to the board!)

I recommend getting a premium membership, so you can buy and sell parts here on the board. plenty of vintage stuff for your truck to make it yours.

As part of the YG8 promo package your truck was fitted with "Upgrade" wheelcovers, the PA1. Love'm or hate'm there seems to be little middle ground.

There are, as was pointed out, other factory offerings you could fit.

The classic daisy wheel has always been one of my favorites. :-)

[SS Tim]

Now you have me wanting copies of the sticker and invoice!
