Subtle but above factory. Not over built and in your face. Really evened out the music up around the head area. Sounds better than my wife痴 2023 Silverado. Looks cooler too 😬

Re: I think I知 done?

Peep the French seam on the dash. Not too shabby. I picked up sewing a few years ago to do my interior. I bought a 1959 White sewing machine for 15$ and modified the stitch length to get a longer stitch. Upgraded to a Sailrite LS1 style walking foot machine with a few upgrades and soon to start a little side hustle for the c10 community.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

lol I totally understand. I tried keeping the stock look for the most part on the interior, just with subtle touches of custom I guess.

Re: I think I知 done?

Wow nicely done!!!! I would finish my step side along the same lines as you, lower stereo, interior and engine last.

Looking forward to seeing your products available on the forum.

Cheers

Nice job. I'd be interested in the cost of getting the dash covered.
