Making progress on 72 Suburban!!!

[72WiscSub]

Well after a long three day weekend, I am finally getting some stuff done on the suburban. I wanted to put in new carpet so I ordered a new carpet, but as always once you get started it leads to more work.

The sill plates on the truck were horrible and the weatherstripping was rotten. So I installed the new weatherstripping on the three doors, and replaced the sill plates. This was my first carpet install and once I got the seats out (old rusted bolts are not much fun!!!) it went pretty well. Floor boards are rock solid so after a quick vacuum and wipe down the carpet went in. Cutting all the holes was a bit tedious but once done things went together nicely. I only cut myself a few times with the razor blade!

I added the new front door panels also. It is nice to have new parts, it really makes the truck look fresh. Now I have to save some cash for a new front seat cover.

Oh yeah, I got my new tires and rims on this past week. Yeah I know the center caps are missing. Don't get me started with Eagle Alloy distributor. It has been a nightmare!

Hope you all enjoy the pics. I hope they upload ok.
