Re: 1963 C-10 in NC

Late off work and other house projects to do, but enough time to install the glovebox assembly. Really considering a white insert on the glovebox door and door panels to break up the color some.

Digging the build, nice work! That gauge cluster is slick. Agree on getting it on the road and just taking the glove box door off at your leisure to accent. I know you must be missing and can't wait for the new and improved ride. I was thinking you could cut a white or black glove box cardboard template to see how it would look once the interior is all straight. Really like what I'm seeing nice job,,,

Thanks for the kind words. I think a black and a white template would be a good idea. I could tape them and see what looks best.

And yes......I'm past due for a drive in my truck.

Re: 1963 C-10 in NC

Ill hold off on any two-toning until the carpet and seat is installed. I want to see how it looks in 1 color with the rest of the ok interior.

Worked on the grill some last night too. Decals will go on this weekend and it'll be done.

I also agree with the black accent idea. Would add some nice character.

Nice score on the clock....and yeah...I'll take the templates if you don't want them. Just regular mail is ok though.....don't have to send priority. I have the factory accessory book, but it doesn't have all the templates. And I'll check on the AC template tonight for you. Been in SC hunting since Friday.

Just my opinion, but I think that the glovebox needs a black accent to mimmic your gage cluster...Nice lookin BTW!

Re: 1963 C-10 in NC

Sorry about the absence guys. Have been up to my neck with multiple jobs, getting married and then a great honeymoon in Puerto Rico, hunting season and a bunch of family business. Hope to get back on the stepper here after Thanksgiving with some new updates and progress.

Hope all is well with everyone else!!!
