Re: Project “Double Tap” (rebirth of a 1970 c30)

Time for a few updates. I took my 6-year old daughter for a ride around the block today. She LOVED it. She told me the truck should be called "Blue Bomb" so I'm seeing if I can change the thread name.

I focused mainly on the interior, but also the rear of the cab.

Floor cleanup:

It was pretty dirty, like most of these trucks.

The mat was in pretty good shape, just dirty and a few small tears.

After wash with a bristle brush and soapy water.

Rubbed in some trim restorer. I like this stuff because it dries "dry" (not slimy) and although it doesn't stay dark black for long it gives it a clean original look.
