Driver's door on. My father disagreed with me, and did not mix the pint and quart I had. As a result, the door handle doesn't quite match the door. (He used the pint to paint my handles, and I used the quart to paint the doors.) It is something I will have to fix at a later date.
A little before and after, the dented door and black handle vs. the freshly painted door and color matched handle.

Passenger door is on. Going to swap in the rest of the interior and wire up the radio tomorrow. The past eight months without a radio has been hell. Hoping I can make everything I have planned - happen tomorrow.

I went to a junkyard today and found a spare wheel for my 93 Indy Pace truck and a set of hubcaps for a 72 GMC Jimmy or truck.I also got the El Camino running and out of the shop today as well as the Malibu .Also got the 81 Trans Am on the roller skates I bought from Wild Bill and moved it to the front of the shop.

I have a soft spot for those 88'-98' Chevy/GMC trucks. I have owned a few in the past, always liked the styling. I actually tried to find a 91'-93' 454 SS truck before I had bought my 2000 Silverado 5.3L Stepside. Looking back, I would have been better off, they already have the engine/transmission/rear axle that I want. Vs. all of the work swapping in what I want in the newer trucks.

This is my first of this bodystyle truck but I do like it ,runs and drives great .Im kinda getting used to the funky Indy Pace Stripes on it but not sure they will stay as I know they are not reproduced .

Really? I am surprised that Phoenix Graphics does not reproduce them.

Only 1500 of these trucks were produced so I guess they dont think they would sell enough of them to make it worthwhile .

John...if you need those stripes replaced...I'm sure Tim could reproduce them. He does factory stripes in vinyl for quite a few local body shops.
If you recall my blue Dodge Diesel pickup, Tim did the silver/gray Bumble Bee stripes and hood graphics for it.
