I've found with these trucks, less is more. Lots of time spent removing old add ons

[Mister-B]

My truck is pretty close to original, but yet I still find myself spending quite a bit of time removing old stuff that a PO installed. Crazy that people spent money and time adding crap like this.

Here's what I've removed in the past month or so:

1. Cloth cover glued to the dashboard
2. "Oven mitten" cloth visor covers
3. 40 year old rusted all the way through aftermarket bed gas tank
4. Odd sized rusted to hell trailer hitch balls
5. Large stickers on both doors that said U.9,000. This was a state requirement something like 30 years ago, and yet they've been there ever since
6. CB radio mount under dash

Here's what I still need to remove:

1. 1970's cheap aftermarket "Audio Barn" tape player
2. Ugly cloth seat cover
3. Glass mount Pep Boys rear view mirror (rear view mirrors were an option in '69), and mine didn't come with one, so someone later installed an after market one. I'm going to install a ceiling mount one.

Tell us what you've had to remove
