Re: My version of the s10 swap

At home:



First project was the seat. I wanted to fit it one more time before taking it to the upholstery shop to get covered. Since this is a different seat than I had in it before, I wanted to be sure. It fits perfect.



Upholstery guy recommended carpet on the back of the seat vs. vinyl. He said if it was vinyl it might stick to the back of the cab on a hot day and possibly tear if I fold it forward, since it will touch the back of the cab I decided he was probably right.



Here's the color of vinyl I picked out. It'll be pleated, and we'll do the door panels and visors to match.



Before I started hanging things for good I wanted to put down some sound deadner. I know there are different opinions of brand, but this is what my dad used in his Chevelle with very good results, so I'm sticking with what I know.









I also picked up some Underhood black paint, so as I prep things to go back in place I'm giving them a quick coat to clean it up. Looking forward to starting in on the wiring!
