    Going to pull the dash and repaint it,recover the seats,like to redo the headliner also. And install disk brakes @ the rear.
    Some time in the future I want to repaint the truck,as should have blocked it a few more times( blocked 4 times) ,door work shows a little & have some low spots. Came out alright for my first truck painted, & in the driveway!!
