Fresh Pics of the new year. *Shiny*

Here it is freshly washed and waxed. Thanks to Notadime for the recommendation on the Collinite, wow, good stuff! It's my first time using a tripod too, the pictures turned out way better with it. You can still see water in some spots (bottom of roll pan), I was losing daylight so I had to skimp on the drying a little lol.

I'm really sorry about the humongous pictures. I have reuploaded them twice now in 800x600 but for some reason it's only remembering the first set I tried. I went back to the home page and hit create new thread again so idk whats up. Hopefully it fixes itself soon.



















Yes, I only have one plate light. For some reason when I connect the second one it causes all my lights to go out.


Here's some crappy interior shots. I haven't even cleaned it up since last fall. Only change in here are my new junkyard seats



And here's a little preview of what should be coming in the next month or so, just waiting on the cash to have it painted.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

It'd look great with some custom classic or Katskin covers imo.

i can't wait for the sonoma front end. imo, right now there is too much chrome in the front. i hate my grill.

I have only a few plans for the interior right now. I don't want to go crazy with it since I drive it everyday in the summer, I'll just be doing some minor adjustments on the inside, i dont mind stock much at all.

I probably should some time. But it's better than the orange overspray it had on it last year when I got it back. And thank you!

Really? that could be a possiblity. I am going for more of luxury look on the interior. The fiberglass sub box i am currently building is going to be leather wrapped.

I almost bought a set for my old show truck. They have all kinds of different material and you can custom build them on their site. I think custom classic is cheaper though, but just as good quality.

Re: Fresh Pics of the new year. *Shiny*

yeah, I love the painted window trim. it makes the truck look way nicer and not so cheap.

Sonoma swap is very easy. Buy parts and install. Zero modification necessary.

Re: Fresh Pics of the new year. *Shiny*

Used headlights $65
Certifit bumper cover $35
Certifit bumper reinforcement $40
Certifit grill $30
and the side brackets i got for free.

If you are looking to do the swap on your 97 it is a little more involved since your core support is different. You will need some more parts which will also just bolt on. I dont know exactly what you would need though.

Re: Fresh Pics of the new year. *Shiny*

Thanks a lot everybody. I'm too lazy to do multi quotes again.
Yes, I'll be doing a billet insert in the grill later on.
No billet steering wheel though, I like having airbags.
