We didn't really like the stock arm rests and had never put one on the passenger side, so we made some new ones for each side.

Well, let me show you!

Got the center console and a few other small parts painted this morning...same metallic grey as the interior. Our buddy Scott came through for us again!

We're putting it together for the last time now...feels good to bolt it in knowing you aren't pulling it again!

Re: Our "What are we going to do?" 66 Suburban Build

More fun stuff...we sourced these push button switches from Billet Automotive Buttons out of Australia.

Some are momentary, but most are on/off, depending on function. All of our systems will run through these except basic column controls...turn signal, horn, and hazard.

We're running a Dakota Digital dash and my son will custom wire the whole burb...should be fun!

We had the seats reupholstered to match the interior...also had them slightly reshaped...feels and looks a lot better.
