Hey man, everything looks awesome! I've got a set of new black armrests from LMC I'm not going to use, let me know if you're interested. (Decided to go different color).

Also, on your door panel trim rings, did you acetone and clean them, or have them chromed? Also, I can't find the clips anywhere to hold them on, did you have to source any replacements? The belts look great, where are they from? Is that too many questions?

Thanks!!

I just got armrests this week, wish I would have known. :/

I used some aerosol paint stripper on the trim and polished it a little. They were actually in pretty good shape beforehand. I have most of an extra set of the clips. Can throw them in the mail if u need them.

Belts came from retrobelt, a subsidiary of retrosound. They seem ok so far. I was gonna try the ones from lmc but they were out of stock.

Have been tinkering with stereo stuff a bit, trying to get things wrapped up on the inside of the cab.

Door speaker in, not really excited about the grilles. I may do something different with them, possibly make some that mimic the shape of the door panel.



And the sub enclosure that will have a single shallow mount 10. The back of it is a panel that covers the entire back of the cab. It all will be carpeted black.



Corner panels that will hold a pair of 4x10s like the ones in the doors.


They look like they have huge gaps in the pics but aren't mounted yet.

I like the corner speaker idea I might have to copy that too Are you going to use the carpet you use for speaker enclosures like on sub boxes?

[Coupe5oh]

Thanks! They are nothing fancy, but should sound decent. I have actually been working on carpeting the rest tonight. Think it's going to look ok.


Crappier than usual phone pics. It was hard to get any light back there.

Hey coupe, it just clicked when I saw this pic of your grille:

I saw this grille at a swap meet here in springfield but I didn't have the money for it. I got the guys card so I could contact him later.
You stole my grille! you #!×+*!

Lol just kidding it's a Purdy grille. Nice find

Great work! How are you going to attach those corner boxes? Got pics of them outside of the truck? That's a great set up!

[Coupe5oh]

The corner boxes just screw to the panel that runs across the back of the cab. They sit behind the door pillar, so it wedges everything in tight. I hate drilling extra holes in stuff! :/

Unfortunately it still looks about the same ( no bed/ hood) on the outside. I'm about to run out of stuff to tinker with, so I'm gonna have to get them moved off the back burner at the body shop. I want to have it done by the time warm weather gets here.

Thanks! Can't wait to see her back together.

Here's a brighter pic, you can see the c shaped (to clear the speaker magnet) piece with the screw holes drilled in it. I shoulda taken some pics out of the truck.

Ha. Maybe. I found it on craigslist. The guy lived somewhere out near effingham Il. I paid dearly for it and a few other things. I did sell a set of 70-72 trim that I got to recoup some cost. It was pretty cool to finally take it out of the box and put it in.

[Craigerf100]

Lol rub it in why don't yah.

Looking good coupe

[Coupe5oh]
