Re: Doing What I Can

thanks for all the words of encouragement, the black is dupli-color bed liner for a little grip(i used it in the floor in the cab too). got the truck last august and hadn't had any time to do anything with it until the last couple of weeks. she's just about done with what i;m gonna do for now. eventually will get new paint and maybe a little lift, smooth out the suspension,(any thoughts on that? just want a little smoother ride), and some other new parts all around. wish i took some before pics, tore out the whole interior and did what i could insde(went from tan to black). wasn't really on a budget so i was buying some stuff from lmc mostly, but now i need to watch the pennies for a little while anyway. she's not a show truck, just for back and forth to work, can't take the camaro to work. i'll post some pics tomorrow. i think she looks alright, love these old trucks, they don't have the character on newer models.

Re: Doing What I Can

Where did you get the headliner with the speakers or did you make that yourself?

Re: Doing What I Can

I think I got it through lmc truck parts, but I've seen it in other places. It's called the highliner headliner
