Looks like you are getting your interior redone, One Father's Day at a time.

Happy Father's Day to you as well!

Guys I've seen it in person, very nice looking truck. Pictures don't do the color combo any justice at all, very very good looking truck.

scotts62 · 06-20-2010, 10:50 PM

That is a nice truck! Is that a light blue over grey? anyhow looks great!

Cool gift. I did that for my dad one year too. Put a kenwood tape deck in the car he was driving since it only had an am/fm. He had given me his truck to drive (the '78 in my sig), and was driving my moms old car back and forth to work as she had a company car then. He loved his music and had a bunch of tapes, which is why I got that instead of a cd player. Probably the best gift I ever got him.

He passed a few years later in '99. I still have the truck and the tape deck is in it, even though I have a few cd players I could put in it. Most people dont understand, but it just seems right. You two enjoy your time together, memories like that are the best!

Yeah I love the color combo on it. I was going to steal the combo for the 84 that I had. Mine was the stock two tone, but the same colors.
