Thumbs up Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds

Here's an updated pic of mine with the new.djm 5" flip on the rear. I get my spindle Tuesday for the 5" front drop. I'll update after I get those on! Here's what I got so far.

Thanks! Here are some pics of the interior and the engine bay. The interior is in good shape all except for the worn out bench seat. I just ordered a new seat cover and door inserts Friday to freshen up the interior. Hopefully they will all be back sometime this week. My upholstery shop is going to redo the seat foam and install the seat cover all for $100. The engine is the original stock 305 with 135k miles and still runs smooth as butter. It will stay until it gives me reason to swap engines. For now this is a great truck to roll slow motion with the windows down and just enjoy life.

I have no idea but hopefully I will know pretty soon. The guy that painted it is supposed to give me some paint to do some tough up with.

@BigMike608 Where did you get that dash cover from? What is that called? I'd like to recover my dash but a cover like that would be fine for me.

It's made by a company name Dash Design. It was on the truck when I bought it, I have no idea where the previous owner purchased it. Sorry I couldn't be more help

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds

Hello thought i would post some pics of my 83, there's still work to be done but i think it looks pretty good so far. The last pic is the chasis about a year ago today before any of the paint work.
