I know its not a big priority at this point but what are plans on steering wheel? I'm also going to be using a dodge column and had thought about trying to use a later model GMC wheel with it rather than the normal parts store grant wheel I have used in like 5 other trucks lol.
Hey 350! Thanks I’m happy and moving on with the fabric choices, I have them all ready to go, even though I really would prefer one of the SMS vinyls, just can’t justify the extra expense o well. I have decided to add headrests the the 2nd and 3rd rows as well. Just want the extra bit of neck protection for my passengers.

For the wheel, I would really like to get the stock GMC wheel on there. Just like the style best plus it all cleaned, repaired and ready to go. Project for the future. The Dodge wheel will do for now. If it doesn’t work with the Dodge column, i figure I will go with a nice tilt column later on.

Well Vancouver Island got a bunch of snow.... which has slowed down progreess a bit hahaha. But I have been back on it this last weekend. I have been getting the seat belts installed the brackets figured for the top of the back rest. Also picked up the foam for the 3rd row. Yesterday I started sandblasting the seat spring frame. I will have to get the frames blasted and painted, foam shaped and more on the brackets figured. Then the seats should be ready for fabric and vinyl.
