    Yeah, I have been pulling everything out as I have time. I have been using a wire wheel and my drill. Oddly enough, the wire wheel was found in the truck while cleaning it out haha. Anyway, for now to save I am just going to redo the dash pad. I am confident I can make it look better than it...

    I am very interested in what you did exactly. I don't now to much about redoing anything. I am just jumping in head first and knowing I do solid work. But as for cleaning it out and if you purchased that blue paint. Where did you get it or do you remember the paint code.

    I would be interested in knowing more about your journey. It seems I am off to a similar path.

    Right now it's just the cab. I have big plans for this young lady, but for now I have to bite off only what I can afford band aids for at the moment.

    I have officially began gutting the truck. Here is some photos. It’s going to be a challenge for sure.

    Thank's for the info! I have been all over YouTube looking for ideas. The only question that I keep having and seemingly unable to find is: What thickness and density of foam would work best. The last thing I would want is to have the covers droopy or not appear fitted appropriately.

    Yeah, it’s.. uh.. pretty rough but it runs and drives. I have a ton of work to do I see that. My wife loves this truck and she remembers riding in it before it looked like this. When she was a young girl.
