spent 4 or 5 hours today repainting and dressing up my column

 

Just picked up one of these in excellent stock condition. Looking forward to dress it up. I know it's been a few years since this post, but sure would like to see some photos of your pickup. I'm interested to know what are the largest tires I can put on the 15" wheels.

 

I got a few more pics. I have let it run down a bit but need to get it back to prime. I'll look up the pics and post em.

 

 

What brand and type paint did you use for the dash?

 

Nice looking truck!

 

How did the seats...fit in?

 

It's SEM paint. Works very well,just make sure you prep well before spraying.

 

Of course they didn't just "fit". I had to have brackets welded to the floor to mount them on. All the electric functions and seat/shoulder belts work.
