Re: Another rebuild thread... Starting my first truck!
Welcome to the board from NJ! Looks like a really solid foundation for a nice resto... IMO, I would leave the stock AM/FM in the dash and if you want modern tunes, get a portable Satalite radio system that uses one of the radio channels to play through your radio or put the AM/FM/CD in the glovebox... Well optioned trucks are few & far between...

Re: Another rebuild thread... Starting my first truck!
Everyone who parks thier trucks out under trees has got to be vigillant about cleaning out those vents! I took my vent flaps off and sucked a half a wet vack full of leaves out of both sides of my truck. I had a hose in the top cowl vent and a loop of rubber coated solid copper electrical wire as a reaching tool. It took hours and I yielded 8 gallons of wet leaves. Now the few that gather will blow out or in on the highway at speed. It's a problem area that should be understood by us all. Nice truck! Just do the rockers and the cab corners and go. Getting into a big rebuild without owning the space in which you are doing it is risky business. That's why so many disassembled trucks are for sale as projects! Just do what is needed and enjoy driving it as original as possible is my advice.
