Been a while, but I finally put together a new video of the progress I made a while back. Hopefully another one coming soon. In this video, I showed the progress on the rear frame section (blasting, priming, painting, etc.). Hope you enjoy it!

looking great! I've seen you post on facebook before. Got me wanting to pull my bed soon and do the same thing.

Unfortunately I have some rot to fix above my driver flare

Photo dump time! Lots of progress over the last few months.

 

First, I finally finished up the floor pan and inner rocker replacement and raptor lined the floor.image.jpeg.25fb5edb54c0d60c1839720a291f0e45.jpegimage.jpeg.e4b2cb1cd799c1da63b0b48e6dda731c.jpeg

 

Installed some sound deadener.

New B-pillar lights.

Cleaned up every interior panel to reinstall.

Recovered the headliner.

Got my bench reupholstered and reinstalled.

Fixed some broken stuff on the header panel.

And threw in a new head unit and speakers in the B-pillars and dash. Needed to fab up some simple custom mounts for the front speakers, since I didn't trust just screwing them into brittle plastic with super short screws.

And last but not least, I finally took it out for a proper test drive. Got some gas and even put the bed to use! So damn excited to finally be at this point!

Looks great, Steve! That recovered bench makes me regret swapping to buckets

Thanks! Came out just as I had hoped, but also so much better than I had hoped...if that makes any sense! :))

It's ACC carpet. Fits fine, but as everyone else will tell you, it requires quite a bit of trimming to get it to fit.

Neat! Curious, where did you find the gladiator bumper? Junkyard? Ebay?

Curious how well a trailer hitch would clear. Maybe I should find out :D

Thanks!

Local junkyard had one. Found it on car-part.com. I’m planning on fabbing up a hitch for it as well.
