The Jimmy will have plain steel for the time being, but this truck never has. It was one of those fancy schmancy "Custom Deluxe" models. These door panels are actually the original ones from my truck. I pulled off the 71 style covers, sandblasted and primed them, then recovered them myself. I just wanted some hands on when it came to the upholstery and I wanted to be able to use those original parts. The visors and arm rests are also my originals and being recovered. My new floor mats are also here now (at da-burbs still til I pick them up).

The other day I stuffed pillow fiber fill into the cab corners behind the speakers. I've been told it helps the sound. We'll see if I can notice it. Eventually I will add more power to the sound system.
