local junkyard will sell me some for 15 a piece

[Dub_X]

Then go for it man. But if you can't find them, centercaps.net is the place to go. Considering they're only 22 a piece, if you REALLY need them and can't find them, it's a good place to look.

Oh believe me I know the feeling. I haven't had a job in over a year and no matter how many apps I put in, no matter how many interviews, gets me nowhere.

And once I have money I'm gonna take a trip to one of the local salvage yards and get me some new seats. I'm starting to hate the leather in my truck lol, I want cloth.

Leather looks nice, but it sucks when it's hot. Because it burns like hell. And in the winter, shxt's freezing cold. So I'm looking for cloth to replace it.

The wrap isn't on it yet, but you did what you said you were gonna do man. That's the kind of confidence to have; don't forget that. You said you were going with GM maroon, the whole truck is GM maroon. You said you wanted camo Z71 stickers, it has camo Z71 stickers. You've done a lot of work, and it's come a long way man. Give that some thought lol

yeah i still wanna do the camo wrap but havnt had the money i had got it back on the road in october and ran into more problems and i blew the motor in my plow truck so i took all the money i had saved up and picked up a 98 gmc 4x4 ecsb 305.

the stepside needs a clutch throw out bearing alternator and head gasket

my 94 ext cab needs a motor and a bunch of front end parts so thats the new mud truck
