okay guys we got the doors put on and one of the other guys that was working on the truck hit the truck and took a big chip out of the paint so we had to take it back off the truck and touch it up with the paint. the new glass is in both doors. all of the door handles and window cranks are on the doors. this morning i had to drop about $325 on some dolphin gauges i think they look good. later this afternoon I'm going to look at another bed for the truck for $300

What color interior are you going with? My fingers are crossed all the leather and carpet is black with the body color on all the metal inside.

I like the torque thrusts too. Did you consider the ones with the black centers? I think that would look killer with the silver.

I am glad you linked this thread as I had missed it up until now.
For now its going to be grey with grey leather seats.
i never considered the ones with the black centers but i think it would look good to. i might just consider them when i go buy the wheels.

Gld you posted a link in GD otherwise I never would have seen this. Very cool truck man
Thanks man!

Yes indeed, very cool build. I'd love to build up a 79' (my birth year and I love that body style) some day.
Thanks man! yes those trucks have a nice body style!

I love the color of your truck, if I hadn't already made up my mind on what I want my 67 to look like I would steal your color. You can't beat old fords, I can't wait to see it done.

thanks man. i had two colors that i was tore on the one that is on the truck and a darker one more of like a charcoal color. so i had to flip a coin on it and it landed on that color. the truck should be done between January and february and then there will be a few more things added later on like an all leather interior
