Junk yard score
I had a little time to kill yesterday evening on my way home and stopped by a U-pull-it yard a few towns over. It was shortly before closing time, but they let me run out to see what they had for Square bodies. The second truck I found had a complete Charcoal gray interior. Of coarse the dash was cracked and the the seat had tears, but the headliner had been recently redone, had all of the trim pieces and and electric door panels, and newer carpet, all of which was in nice condition. I went back first thing this morning and pulled all of it out, and a nice gauge cluster with the clock. Within 10 minutes 1/2 a dozen guys had stopped by wanting the the parts I was pulling. So tomorrow my Custom Deluxe is getting a new interior. I just need to see if I can get the electric door panels to look right on a manual door. The window crank looks like it lines up with the hole for the power window button, or at least close enough I can make it work. I also found 2 more electric speedo clusters from 91 Suburbans with nice dash bezels, a so-so center console, and another headliner missing the material and pieced together enough trim for a whole set, will just need recoverd and the trim painted. They had a few real nice tilt columns, but didn't feel like going through the trouble to get them. I may go back next week and snatch them up if they are still there.
