Oh yeah, I no longer have frosted windows, after a hour or two with a razor blaze and glass cleaner.

Re: 1970 GMC Stepside Redbuild
Made a trip to Rogersville there yesterday to pick up my interior stuff from Tim Christian, who btw is a great guy to deal with, thanks Tim. Now all i have to do is repaint my interior and install the carpet, dash pad, and other stuff and the interior will be finished.

Re: 1970 GMC Stepside Redbuild
Is it a bad thing when you use ur closet to store truck parts?? lol Well anyways ive got carpet, dash pad, sound deadner, door handles, door locks, door sills, door weatherstripping, interior paint, and a gauge pod. Should finish out the interior when i get it painted aside from the stereo and speakers.

Re: 1970 GMC Stepside Redbuild
Looks great! MAJOR improvement. I like the black and blue two tone. Was considering something like that for my interior. Nice work!

Re: 1970 GMC Stepside Redbuild
Did you buy new chrome strips above the black door inserts, have them already, or just paint them silver?
