Re: thinking about getting this in the morning

Got my back seat back from the upholstery shop. Did a nice job matching the front seats I didn't want to go crazy with the diamond stitching.

Re: thinking about getting this in the morning

This is interesting... I don't think I've seen that trim used only for the lower trim line, especially a 81-91. White cab, white lower, yellow in the middle?

that's funny, i typed out exactly what I'm doing then erased it all not to ruin the surprise for you! lol yes i couldn't see putting those rubber moldings on instead of these earlier model ones not running the upper moldings just the lowers the clips they give you to install these from LMC are way too big we found some smaller ones and it worked out great took forever to get them just right!

Re: thinking about getting this in the morning

Surprise it is then! Cool. I like the idea for the trim. Matches the wheel-well moulding too.

I've got to do a similar roof rust repair on my 77 coming up. Do you happen to have any pics of the structure under the roof skin repairs in post 64? Or is it just the inner sheet metal and outer skin? Especially interested in the work you did near the A and B pillars.
Truck looks great! Thanks, Mick
