Looks great Tim!

**Eagle9502** · 08-21-2022, 09:36 PM

Looking good!

**68bowtie** · 08-21-2022, 10:09 PM

Thanks! I have never had a great imagination (engineer brain). I have contemplated going red for a couple years, but I had no idea how much I would love it.

**Ol Blue K20** · 08-23-2022, 10:19 AM

Looks good, the red interior is gonna be beautiful.

**68bowtie** · 10-07-2022, 09:35 AM

Interior is complete except for the seat. And one grayish brown wire under the dash, I can’t remember where it connects. I took apart the cluster to put my speedometer back in place, since it fell off during cam break in. Lol

Agreed!

^^^^^What they said!!!!☝🏻

**68bowtie** · 10-07-2022, 05:18 PM

Appreciate it guys! It’s getting me re-motivated to finish this thing off and start driving it again. It’s really not far off if I can buckle down.

darkhorse970 · 10-07-2022, 09:42 PM

It just keeps getting better! Great job on the interior!

Truck has really come along...

**68bowtie** · 10-21-2022, 07:33 PM

Well I went to check out my seat at the upholstery shop. They did a VERY nice job on this seat. Smooth and tight. Except they had a miscommunication on the insert material. I had brought in my door panel, and they found matching material to make the inserts match the panels. But they ended up using something random. Still looks good, just not what I wanted.

They offered to fix it, which was great. The only issue is they will have to make the insert areas wider. Which is actually good, I think they need to be a little larger anyway.

What did you do with the buddy seats? I assumed you were going to do those in red. Bench does look sharp

72 tigger · 11-12-2022, 08:25 AM

Love the red!

The complete buddies moved along to Sacramento in an orange 68 stepper. Logically I should have done that, but I just wanted a bench.

Very nice progress!!
