Re: Finally got my dream truck... 72 Cheyenne Super

A very nice truck indeed
I believe it came out of Dallas, correct?
If it is the one I’m thinking of
I drooled over it for quite some time

I appreciate you are leaving it original
I’m sure it drives like it is new

The wood grain looks to be pretty good on the
Cluster and glove box door
In my opinion, there is no really good aftermarket matches

On your wood grain door panel inserts
These are the closest I have found to the original’s

If you want to darken them up you can spray a light coat of clear
It will also make them shinier like the originals

Thank you! Yes, this came from Streetside Classics in DFW.

It drives great and I'm very happy.

The driver's door woodgrain is scratched pretty bad where a ring or watch would when using the door handle. The passenger isn't bad at all. At least if I replace the pair they'll match even if they're a little off from the dash/glove box. I'd rather that than the scratches.
