    Interior color for red truck??

    Ok the short version is this: While searching for parts for my daughter's truck I am building I came across a guy who had a very nice 1978 Dually that he had lost interest in. He spent tons of money on this truck and it is bad ass. He had thousands in parts still in boxes that I got in the...
