I am in love with the burlap. This thing is awesome.

Yeah I reckon the best thing to do is run a ipod/phone cable under the seat because most everyone puts it on their lap or on the seat. I personally rest it on my chode. I don't know why I wanted to share that, but there you go.

I found out brass knuckles are legal on Va as long as they aren't concealed.i decided I'm going to go w the vintage radio w iPod hookup. It will ties the dash together.

Congrats on the wedding Yusoslo

The bed is looking hot.
I had to think a minute about the radio. I think a vintage radio would be legit but it all depends if you think it worth dishing out the cash man.

Whats an MIP??

I heard as long as its displayed its legal.

Thanks for the compliments on the truck and wife guys!! Marriage is amazing, planning a wedding is not. We have been together for 6 years and the 1 month before the wedding was stressful!!!! We are both glad it's over and can return to our normal lives.

Truck is looking awesome man. Congrats on the marriage, your wife is beautiful.

I'd make a suggestion, remove that brass knuckle. Its cool and everything, but I was fucked over when I was young cause I had one and got a MIP.

vintage all the way

[yusoslo]

should I install a vintage radio with ipod controls and put the ipod in the ash tray?

or.....

Put in a block off plate and run an ipod controlled amp under the seat and have a smooth dash?

I'm leaning towards the vintage knob radio but it will add $300 to the system....but doing it right is most important

Few updates today.

Just a perspective shot from a far, my G35 is slammed and it looks big next to the truck




Stained the wood bed finally!!!! Espresso stain and satin deck sealer




Interior is coming together


Got the drums center bore enlarged for my redrilled 66 axles. The driveshaft is being made now, should be a week!

Shocks and license plates by the end of the month!!

[yusoslo]

Thanks man, I appreciate it. I put a lot of thought and time into this truck. Wait till it blown w a big block! Or twin top mount turbo 383. I can't decide!!

I can't tell you how many times I have gone back and re-read this entire thread. This is beautiful. Congrats on getting married as well!

A few small updates. I mocked up my shift boot and will sew it up later with twine. I test fit the custom cab horn and trim ring. I'm not sure if I should have it rechromed or leave it pitted. Awaiting the driveshaft to be made and I should have this thing driving by early next week.
