    Morning session: I had some bubble wrap at the shop that was left over from a project so I was wondering how good it would look in the cab of my SB.

    I don't have a garage to work in so I would really like to finish it before the cold, wet, weather gets here. The drawback is the exhaust. This truck originally came with a Y-pipe connected to the headers, and a single muffler/exhaust pipe terminating back behind the driver's side rear tire...

    What have you done to your square lately??

The floor mat took quite a while because it came with no shifter holes, and my old one came out in multiple...

    Worked on running new speaker wire to the rear speakers. Installed a new battery tray. Installed new springs in the ash tray.

    Installed tail gate bumper stops and adjusted the catch assemblies. No more rattle and the hinges aren't catching against the body lip anymore. The PO definitely didn't know anything about repairs, or replacing things that were taken off. At least he kept everything in a box. I only have about...

    I used a wire wheel on the rust spots and treated them with rust treatment. After it dried, I put a coat of paint over the entire floor. Should receive the mat and sound liner this week.
