I picked this up yesterday. I'm a little overwhelmed thinking about the restoration. This site looks like a nice resource.

Welcome and good luck with your truck! This forum is a great resource for working on these trucks. Reading about others projects can get you through a lot of turmoil and give you some great ideas too.

Welcome. Such a unique color combo for your interior. Just when you thought you seen em all there's always something new.

I agree - unique is nice way of putting it . I'm not sure what the original color was on the truck. I plan on going with a black interior.

Look at your spid taped to the inside of the glovebox. It appears to be parchment. The dash pad steering column and door covers appear original and seat or seat cover and steering wheel from another truck. Visors if correct parchment should be white. Are you going to keep it a 3 speed?

I think you have a great interior color combo! Good luck with your new purchase.

Thanks for the info. The visors are white. I checked the glovebox - see attached picture. For now, I plan to keep the 3 speed and 6 cylinder. I'm trying to determine how far I want to take this project. My original goal was to use it as a truck (haul mulch, trash, etc.). I mainly want to get rid of the rust.
