Been working hard on the project truck.

Nothing super fancy, '69 cab/frame, lots of '72 donor parts done by the previous owner. home done paint and body (not by me), but not a bad 20 footer, just wavy.

Wanted to keep the classic feel and give it a bit of modern attitude. This will be my run around truck.

New TMI interior pieces, new carpet, sound deadener, wheel, and stereo with hidden amp and sub under the seat.

2/4" ECE deluxe drop with the adjustable track bar and shock relocators (those rivets are such a PITA)

20x8.5 up front and 20x10 in back with 245/45/20 and 295/40/20's. RaceStar wheels.

New exterior trans seals all around, and resealed the input shaft on the steering box.

New carb and intake, plus freshened up a bunch of hoses, vacuum lines, etc.

New grill and surround. New air dam from a late 80's truck. Fit pretty nice after seeing it on here, just a little tweaking here and there. Cheap investment too, in case it didnt work out.

Hood still off getting a small dent fixed and a hinge point crack welded. Then will put on the new hinges, springs, and hood insulator kit.

Cheers!

From LMC, they call it their Signature Series, but it all drop ships straight from TMI interiors. Did the seat, sun visors, and dash pad to tie it all together.

Re: Been working hard on the project truck.

Thanks guys. Seats and wheels, etc are expensive, and all the new amenities are great. New truck costs $50k+ though. I've got about $12k in it, counting the cost of truck, so worth it for me. Will probably spring for air and gauges eventually though.
