I love that interior!!!! Orange and black are THE colors for these trucks. What color of orange is that Tim? Hmmmmm I wonder why I am so partial to that color?.....
BTW, Is that the truck you made into a SWB from a LWB?? Looks amazing!! Wish I had a cruiser like that when I was in school.

Panel fit
Does anyone have experience with the aftermarket steel door panels? They're less expensive than the plastic ones and I like the look better but I've heard horror stories about the holes not lining up with the window crank, door latch etc. on the repops...
I see you sell some parts, too, Tim... do you have those panels available??

Thanks for all the kind words. The color is Tangerine Orange. He reads the board but has not joined yet I told him he should. We fight over the computer now! LOL It cost $350.00 to get the seats covered most places wanted $500.00 but I found this one guy to do them for $350.00. I will post a picture of what they did look like. I have not sold any of the repo steel dppr panels but I do have some nice used ones. If interested?

not to alarm you or anything, but they way those seats are covered lead me to suspect your sons a pimp. that truck is a fine example. good work. i hope his friends understand what fixing up an old truck is like. my friends dont understand. my goal is to finish my truck for the prom...im not going to the prom, just the parking lot so i can lay some strips down.
