First show in two weeks at the Pittsburgh World of Wheels... Possibly Detroit auto rama and then a hand full of Goodguys shows depending on how much room is in the rig.. I wont be afraid to drive the truck anywhere but I also drive the rig so there for it will get a trailer ride to most shows..

duallyjams · 01-14-2012, 03:17 PM

How busy are you at the shows. It's a long ride but if the weather plays nice I might hit the PA world of wheels.

All depends on the crowd.. Let me know!

c10addict · 01-16-2012, 02:37 PM

Here are some more interior pics.. I made the center piece around the shifter that holds my iPod, that is the same size of the two armrest back to back, the cup holder piece has a 12 volt plug in the front and the gauges for the air ride in the bottom of the cups and the iPod controller in the ashtray.. The iPod set up is new from Kicker.. it is only an iPod/iPad/iPhone player and comes with a 50 x 2 amp.. pretty trick set up! Now to get some wiring cleaned up and a set of kick panels made..

Daze57 · 01-16-2012, 02:42 PM

once again very nice workmanship !

northern 85 · 01-16-2012, 04:33 PM

Wow that is super nice! Clean work

kustombrad · 01-16-2012, 05:15 PM

The truck looks waaaaay cool! I dig all the dimple die stuff! Very nice!

**lolife99** · 01-16-2012, 05:28 PM

I like the gauges in the cupholder!
Still diggin the seat also.

**youngrodder** · 01-16-2012, 05:35 PM

Very stealth set up with the kicker controls.
I dig it..

I'm in the process of making custom kick panels but they still need some work.

Thanks.. It would just ruin the theme if it was mounted to the dash.. Im going to put 6.5s" and tweets in the kick panels.. Then another set of 6.5's and a sub for the rear...

Whats the switch for under the drivers seat?

Red Foreman · 01-16-2012, 08:29 PM

I like the square stiching on the seat fabric, its giving me idea's for mine. I don't suppose they make that fabric in torquois?

The switch is for the air ride.. There is another one next to it..

I know they make green... I bought it from SMS Auto Fabrics... Be prepared when they give you a price though... its not cheap!

love the truck, when is World of Wheels? I may have to go weather I bring my truck or not.

27 28 29... If you want to get your truck in let me know...they have a "traditional" section and your ride would fit right it!

99 to Life · 01-17-2012, 10:35 AM

well, I'd love to get in it, but my truck is stored up north 2 hours away, so it really comes down to weather. I'm on dirt roads up there, so there is tons of mud when it is not snowing and I have to be careful not to get the truck out if it is going to snow because I know that thing won't handle in the snow. So that is why I'm not sure if I could bring the truck down or not. When is the deadline to get in and does it cost anything? I def wanna see your truck there.

nds1968 · 01-19-2012, 10:28 PM

I may have to stop over and check it out

Its been a few years since I've been to the World of Wheels.

c10addict · 01-21-2012, 07:14 PM

Made a set of kick panels to hold a 6.5" speaker and tweeter, sounds great! Now for the sub install next! .. Had it outside today so I figured I would take some more pics.. Working on another "detail" its the metal piece laying in the bed in the pics.. Any guesses on what it is I am doing now! The winner gets a free High Five if we ever meet!

54 jimmy · 01-21-2012, 07:50 PM

something to fill the spare tire bump in the rear fender. i win.

**youngrodder** · 01-21-2012, 07:53 PM

I like your kick panels. The mistake I made was that I made mine too long and had problems where the cab curves toward the floor. I need to remake the back side of them to contour the curve of the cab better.

It looks like that material wrapped pretty good.

Keep it up....dig the out door pics....It's cold here in MI.

Daze57 · 01-21-2012, 07:59 PM

well if i said it once ! i'll say it again - your truck is just plain sick !

duallyjams · 01-21-2012, 08:46 PM

Redneck basket weaving .

c10addict · 01-25-2012, 12:04 AM

High Fives all around!!!!! I like it better than the cut out!! I have to weather it a little more so it doesn't look like a piece of fruit!

Daze57 · 01-25-2012, 12:08 AM

o come on now !!!!!!!!!!! that is soooooooooooo insane ! and soooooooooooo cool !

Root2812 · 01-25-2012, 02:41 AM

I wish my truck had the cut out for the side mount spare. This spring I am going to be looking for someone to trade fenders with. Its a shame to cover it up but since you aren't using it, that is a pretty cool and unique way to do it.
