I would like to have that for my truck, especially if it would clean up. But shipping to Va would be cost prohibitive.

As far as why? I guess it was the style at the time. I kinda like the red, my truck is red and white.... I dont have headrest, and it worries me if I was ever rear ended......
Im in Manassas..... About 30 miles west of DC

If you find the frames and tracks, they can be rebuilt; shucks, Corbeau sells buckets and tracks for our trucks brand new!

The console, not so much.

The red is a bit much for me. I replaced my light grey carpet with red (maroon actually I think) but that was only because it was the best carpet I could find and it was darker than the grey. The red (or maroon) of this reminds me so much of a Camaro

There was another truck at the local upull that had the electronic mirror, which I should have gotten but I didn't. I also think that truck had the overhead console, which thinking now I would like to have had too.

I think the shipping costs to get these to VA would be a little hard to stomach. In general, shipping in the US has gotten very much out of control.
