Looks great Mark, nice work and beautiful truck!

Two questions - What did you use to blast the bed? Where did you get the seat belts and are you happy with them??

Thank you! :thup:

A friend of my dad's use to do upholstery for a living, he's retired now and just picks and chooses his jobs, I was lucky he was able to do them for me. The bed was blasted with sand carefully, I got the seat belts from LMC, I'm happy with the belts, they were Beams. The only thing I'm not happy with was the shipping charges from LMC.

Got around to detailing the engine compartment.The only thing I need now is the snorkle.I have one with the vacuum canister would like one with the heat riser.I'd just take the spring and flapper out,I think it would look better than the one with the vac can.
