Not to be nit-picky as this is a REAL nice truck, but after going through the trouble of smoothing the firewall, the insides of the fenders look "unfinished" with all the holes in them?
There must be something that could have been done to make them smooth like the firewall.

That truck angers me.

I had a plan to build a shortbed 73-87, red with white hockey stripes (similar to 67-69 Camaros) and make it look like a "muscletruck."

It is a nice truck, he just beat me to it. Not that I could afford to build one anytime soon, I just thought it would be cool and have never seen anyone do it, until now. Oh well, at least I know everyone would like my truck too.

Awesome looking truck. I bought that mag just for that article.

The Rod Doors panels fit the theme of the truck, but I wouldn't use them. Just don't look right to me.

Man, that truck is unreal. Beautiful workmanship. Love it. I bet he drives that with a big smile on his face. I know I woud be if I was just driving it. But being "my" truck and driving it-Alsome.

I'm still a little lost... lol they are kinda like beta parts? still testing or whatnot? not for sale? haha i feel like such a goober, but i want my interior to be red and carbon fiber, and its funny how i seen that. I really wants some carbon fiber parts for my interior. i think it looks great. But if there is any way i can get my hands on some it would be nice if you could send me a p.m. Thanks

The parts are out on the Rod Doors Pieces. The Covan's dash cluster is already out, but Todd said the fit isn't perfect, but you can still get them.

I carry the Rod Doors pieces they re listed here:

i especially love the interior... gorgeous! personally i think being a "muscle truck" it could use some more meat, but overall its amazing. i love the fact that there is no roll pan, just classic looking chrome bumpers.
