NOS Beau James Parts...

I got a message through my web site the other day from the owner of a GMC dealership. He asked me if I would be interested in some 'new' Beau James parts that were still in the box. Keep in mind these trucks were made in 1975 and for less than half the model year. I couldn't say yes fast enough.

Way too much money later, I got a tonneau cover, floor mats, two driving light brackets, the original boxes and some instructions. I only have one picture so far, but here are the floor mats and the box they came in. One is a little curled from being rolled up all this time, but it will flatten out. I'll have more pics on Sunday night.

Man that is sooo cool. That would be neat just to hang in the garage. My guess is you have to only set like that left.

Check with your buddy and see if he has any OEM mats for my 77 Cheyenne. They look something like those, with out any logo. I "think" they were available in red to match the carpet....

Here's what I have now, but they have been dyed-
