Very nice work. I just got done with my 1009 last weekend and was glad to be able to just stand back and see it done.

Wow, best one I've seen so far. Personally I like the black rims though, I'm thoroughly impressed with the interior though. How did you do all that? I'm guessing you had to of just gutted it all out and started over?

What spacer set are you running on those HMMWV wheels?

Nice looking truck. Hope mine looks at least as nice when I'm done...

Later,

Thanks!

Yes, I thought about painting the wheels black, maybe I will. The wheel spacers are 2 inch and work great to center the H1 wheels on the hubs. The dash pad is NEW and the seat cover is a custom new cover, with new floor mat. The door panels and everything else was taken apart cleaned and SEM vinyl dyed to black. The truck is great.

Thanks for all the positive comments. [thumbzup]

Yea, I did the same thing I do on all my classic cars for customers, I dye the small plastic parts and replace all the big soft stuff. The seat cover is custom and brand new. Much better stuff than the original. No lift of the truck just some very minor front fender trim needed. The truck was a Navy truck and I live in Annapolis, Maryland (home of the Naval Academy) that's the reason I restored it back to a Navy truck. I was in the Army!! :cookoo:David
