Looked better in my head, but not really digging it. It needs something, or may get changed completely.

It's okay, but in my opinion it'd look better with a blue stripe/pleat on the black. Echoes the seat. The truck is looking badass though!

Door panel #2...

This will do for a while. I need to do some work on the bottom of the driver's door, and once that's done, I may try to do some full height door panels. Maybe get a little more detailed with them.

Looks good! The original one was a piece of finished cardboard, so most anything is an improvement unless you want to stay original style inside. We forget how Spartan trucks used to be....

A small project, trying to bring some life back into the dash trim. The glove box door came out great, along with the center section, but the trim piece above and below it, were in very bad shape.

I'll eventually buy new pieces. The crazy part is, you can buy the whole center section, with upper and lower trim, for less than you can buy the trim pieces alone.

Been debating on what color to paint the dash, and I think this has helped me decide, to go with satin black. It'll make the trim pop. Need to get my gauge situation cleaned up too.

Ran across some cool cup holders a couple weeks ago, and showed them to the wife. She said get 'em. They were a little spendy, but when the wife says to buy something, you don't argue.

Got them from LS Fabrication. Didn't realize they were in Canada, until after we bought them. Thought that was cool. Nice to see something coming from the north.

Picked up a window channel kit at the Auto Fair last week, and it made for a nice weekend project.

The window trim looks like it's never been taken off before. Hiding some nastiness, and brittle anti-rattle rubber.

A bit of elbow grease later, and new rubber...

New window channel.

New felt strip.

Cleaned up the outer trim, and repainted that too, since it has to go on before the window channel.

Nice not having to listen to rattling ass windows anymore.
