Slowly breathing life back into 1969

I haven't been able to do much with having a bum foot and all. But here is a couple photos of the Red Rocket. Over the past few weeks, I have installed new door seals and windo rubbers, got all my electrical systems working, rebuilt all of my gauges and started my DIY cupholders. Cupholders are still a work in progress. I did get the LEDs under the plexiglas so that I can see them in the dark. Just have to finish the paint work. I also found some vintage WestCoast style mirrors. They rough but cleaned up pretty good. Next up is 3-point seat belts. I have them in the garage but just haven't gotten them in yet.

Nice clean truck. Looking really good. You've been talking about those mirrors for a while. Now I see why. They look really good. Gives your truck a beefy, wide stance

I'm guessing he's military, from Georgia, but I'm sure he will clear it up

EGA gives it away everytime. I'm a Jojaboy (Georgia Boy) living in Los Angeles. Soon to retire down in San Diego. Truck is from East L.A. but now registered in GA. Its my retirement project. Slow moving due to lack of $$$ but more of a love for tinkering on.
