ACC was no help. They said I had to call the place I bought it from. I did and they want to measure one at their shop and compare to mine tomorrow.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Today I got my headliner material samples and we are going with dark charcoal. It is called Alcantara, an Italian product used by Porsche, BMW and Mercedes on their exclusive models. Only one importer in the US, Gulf Fabrics. It is some fine stuff!!!

We measured and compared to other carpet sets at the Truck Shop. Their high humps that they have in stock measure 74 inches wide, mine - 68 inches!
Yes, we have a problem. I sent it back today to swap it out.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Drew iám right in the moment with you when you drove Sarah to school as was my self when i drove my daughter Aislin to school in my truck a number of years back, and yes it was smiles per mile , waves and thumbs up. Then on the way home after school it happened the question. Dad the boys are all asking me, dad how much would you sell your truck for. After a moment to reflect i said to her the truck is not for sale, this truck was built and its where long lasting memories are made and for us i cant put a price on that.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
That is nice material...I've seen it mixed with leather and it's really sharp!

Stinks about the carpet. Guessing you won't have it now by the show...

Maybe. I think I am going the Super Chevy Show in Memphis that weekend instead of the Grand Rod Run in Pigeon Forge. It would be nice to enter the show here in Memphis with all the carpet. I am jamming it now trying to get it wrapped up for 10 days from now.

The real focus though is on the Hot Rod Power Tour!!!! I got the ok tonight from the wifey. I'll probably do St Louis to Texas.

Who's in????

DOH! It's on my bucket list. The Burb would make it no problem. I was just hoping to wait until a year when I didn't have to drive 20 hours just to START the tour. haha.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
I took my youngest, Sarah, to school today. We got thumbs up all the way there.

I later got caught in some pretty heavy rain and can happily report "no leaks"!

I was planning on at least driving to St.Louis in my Longhorn for the day. We'll have to see. I'd like to go farther, but time is going by too fast.

I hope she had a good birthday. I guess you need to get started looking for a car for her so she won't want to drive Young Frankie!

I love the way that the factory black leather seats look in your truck.
Keep up the good work.

Thanks, they're super comfy, heated, and free since I parted out the rest of the truck and got my original investment back.

The ride is really nice, Although I have a slight impact harshness that I'm guessing is because of the 20 inch rims. Driving it is great fun except my feet keep getting tangled up in all the wires. Each time I add to the interior it gets more and more quiet, but I still can hear the stupid roar from the open cone element intake. I may have to revisit that when I have time. I may lose a few pounds from having to park so far away from everybody. I'm also still busy chasing down squeaks and rattles, but I'm almost out of those.
