Ash tray cup holder

[69chevytrucker]

[No8Easy2]

pulled the amp meter and added a voltmeter

[Ironhorse]

Added a late 90's under hood tool box/storeage to driver's side.

Late 90's truck corded reel, under hood light

Aftermarket 40/20/40 custom seat

Mounted an underdash am/fm, cassette/cd

Added factory tach, tow hooks, factory am/fm all correct factory options

Line-ex bed spray & moved in-cab tank to under the bed with wheel well filler

Used 73-80 styled tow hooks for "rear" tow hooks

Added 4-core radiator and overflow windshield washer styled tank



Don't have all the pics in the computer but here's a couple.

Can you show a pic of how your tow hooks are mounted? Awesome truck.

[Ironhorse]

Couple pics of the tow hooks, underdash/corner speakers, under hood light.

The corner speaker mounts are from board member "bigblock73", great set up but will ONLY work if in-cab tank is moved. Great product and fit like a glove.

The rear tow hooks are GM factory 73-80 hooks. Turned the hooks with the "J" opening to the front of the truck so tow strap won't slip off. Got lucky, they had almost the exact same mounting dimensions as my rear step bumper. Just had to ream the bolt holes ever so slightly. Also a pic of the rear bumper that I had Line-ex sprayed along with the bed.

Under hood light comes in really handy. Mounted in the corner above the heater core box and ran the cable forward between the fender and inner wheel well.

Under the hood cheap lighting almost any car has them. Mercury switch lights come on automatic when you open your hood.




Redid a SS Chevelle steering wheel and wrapped it in leather myself.



Added a late model truck mirror with compass and temperature reading.

that mirror is sooo cool, what is it out of and is it easy to hook up?

[DreamRyder1963]

It looks like a dash out of a 59 Impala. By far one of the best dashes to ever come from the General.

[cliff67]

Yep it's a 59, Its been done before but I learned to drive in the driveway in my brothers impala ,So I want my last new car to have that same dash !! Funny what we do to retain those memories. Can't what to drive it

This gives me an idea. I wanted a way to commemorate the truck build to my father. I got it from him a couple months before he passed away. He was 37 years Air Force and was in Viet-Nam for several years. After he passed away I was going through his stuff and found a bunch of old Hot-Rod magazines from the 60's with Viet-Nam address where he was stationed. That would make an awesome headliner and tie him to the truck. Conversation piece for sure.

I added the whole billet gas pedal assembly and the brake pedal cover yesterday to my 71.
