The body and int pics
OK, last batch of pics for the day....maybe the week. I am still waiting for some crap to come in so I can get my digi-pics out of my camera. Real bummer. I have like 50 or 60 pics in it.
Here is the interior after a few hrs of scrubbing and cussing and a $40 seat cover from Meijers. (like a super wall mart to those who don't know) When the plastic rug/mat was out, I saw 2 rather nasty holes in the floor...again, gotta wait till the digi cam is cooperating. You can see though, it don't look too bad. One of these days I'm gonna have to wax the dash and make it shine. Not much to say on this pic...factory fugly west coast Jr mirrors. I always figured the Jr would just be a smaller west coast mirror, but I guess not. Notice there are no holes for another mirror, and this thing is wearing it's original paint too. On the drivers side, there is the huge KERFAGLED (same as FUBARED) hole where the cool tool box once was. Just makes the damage look worse. The wrong year (but complete set) hubcaps can be seen here too. Here is the passenger side door and cab corner. Rust belt citizens...look real close. This is a rust belt truck, can you believe it? And this would be the drivers side door and cab corner. ------------------ '69 G.M.C. 350/350. Trying to clean up the left over damage from the Dope-Smokin-Old-Man I've been dubbed the Longhorn Freak/Fanatic/Expert, I just hope I can live up to it. FINALLY got the HORNIAC...a '70 one ton Longhorn with a Pontiac 350/350 and lots of 'personality'. Check out The Longhorn Webite.

ok now that the right second pic is there i gotta make another reply, thats not a west coast jr. west coast jr IS just a smaller west coast, they dont stick out as far. ive got a set of aftermarket west coast jr on blue and some factory west coast jr in my room, then a set of those for the 4x4. there like, camper mirrors i think
same here, im getting so sleepy untill i looked three or four time i thought it was just me seeing the pic wrong. im too worried to sleep though, anyways..... [This message has been edited by Blue_71 (edited April 03, 2002).]

I remember..I thought you had the Sr...Oh well, these will come off nyways. Not in the near future, but they will. For now, they'll probably get a fresh coat of white and call it good enough.

longhornmail, i wonder if a regular LWB bedside could be used to fix the huge dent in your longhorn bed. Since the dent isn't on the filler panel, it may be someting to look into instead of tring to locate another bed. BTW, cool truck

Yes, it can be done, but I know where there is a bed down in Tx, the bed off of my old Longhorn. It is in pretty d@mn good shape and the guy is holding it for me.

Yes it is a low hump, you get a high hump with a 4 speed, big block 4X4, or any of those combos. I suspect you get a high hump when you get a 305/351 V-6 too, but that is just going off of my other truck, no one been able to prove me wrong on that one yet... Still looking for some proof on the V-6 one though.
