Judging by the pic on LS1TECH I'd say it's a good place for a pic of the wife

Re: my official 68 shortstep ls1 thread (lots of pics)
I have the same seats. When I bought them they were Steel Horse, but that company went out of business or was bought by someone else.

Re: my official 68 shortstep ls1 thread (lots of pics)
Man that truck looks clean Don. You should be proud! I'm not usually a big fan of black(it's not easy to make a black truck look straight) but I'd say you've pulled this one off perfectly!

Re: my official 68 shortstep ls1 thread (lots of pics)
not to much progress here.....
got the matching dark grey dash pad installed, the polished machined aluminum radio opening, and the rear tail lights installed..... im working on the A/C heat control face plate....the classic auto air one was small and cheap looking....so a new one that'll fit the opening is being made.....here is a sneak peak at it getting modeled.

Re: my official 68 shortstep ls1 thread (lots of pics)
If you would bring that thing to the Midwest All Truck Nationals, in Kansas City next month, I would pay your entry fee into the show. I have been trying all Summer to get to Tulsa to see it and have not been able to get free. Come see us at the show.
