1988 GMC RCSB street build

[jmig]

It's been awhile so here's a small update. I got all my interior pieces painted up and got my headliner back in. I picked up a OH console that was maroon and recovered it with the left over headliner material. Also got the dash back in but still have a few things to do to finish it up. Started working on the exhaust as well, I removed the rigged up exhaust that was put on by the PO, plans are to just get a stock Y pipe and dump it just before the rear.

I bought the material to recover the door panels, black soft vinyl and gray suede...more to come.

Small update...got the bottom covered on the passenger side. I started sanding down the glass I put over the rivets on the door panel and next cut out the vinyl with the old piece as a pattern.

Taped up the areas I didn't want to get the spray adhesive on and cut it out and laid it over before I took the plunge!

And finished up, I will take more time with the drivers side to make sure there's no leftover gobs of adhesive from taking the old stuff off. It turned out ok for the first time ever recovering door panels!

Finished up the passenger side door panel on Saturday, I also straighten out the frame rails so my bed will sit level and installed some drop shackles so I'll be 4/7 now!

I got back on the truck today, put the bed back on and installed the new tail lights and wired up the tag light. Also hung the door panels in the truck temporarily to see how they look with the dash and the seats, pretty good I think! I just got to decide on the console color? Black, Grey or both? The blue one sitting in their is beyond repair so I picked up a nice grey one that needs minor work. Will start on audio tomorrow

Got everything back into the truck today with the exception of painting the new door sills to match my interior. I can now start on the column and geting a new steering wheel.

I finally tagged it a few weeks ago, bought a used tonneau, bought a 454ss cluster and replaced the condensor so my a/c is fixed. Still have a few things to fix but I'm on the road.

I been watching C-list for awhile for this and finally came available today so I went over and scooped it for $100! It's nice and straight and just needs minor prep work and paint!

Hood is on now and yesterday I drilled the holes for the LED 3rd brake light and it looks like the roof will have to be painted since I have some holes to close up
I took out the old Cannon Power Shot 620 yesterday and took a few pics....I love my truck!
