That is awesome.

Where did you get your interior parts? ClubCab carpet?

Also what did you line the inside of the cab, walls and roof, with?

interior sound deadning

Thanks guys,Well I work at a place that builds airplanes.Beleive it or not the sound deadening material has an experation date.The manufacture will not warranty it if it's out of date.Same with the paint.I bought the paint,sound deadning material,as well as the cloth used on the headliner and the walls on a scrap pass for under 100.00,The seats are mid-seats from a dodge grand caravan.(20.00 each at the local junk yard)It was a good bit of work mounting them, I used seat tracks from a old lebaron I had in the back yard,But they are like captains chairs with 2 arm rest,I'll have to look an see where I got the floor mat,(don't remember at the moment) an get back with you.Thanks again

vinyl mat

Hey dlokes7,To answer your question on the carpet it came from automotive interiors.I ordered the vinyl mat rather than carpet.

jim5870,You are correct.I saw your truck on this site before I started on mine.I liked the clean look of no side molding or wheel housing moulding.I'm planning on doing away with the trim rings once I clean and paint my rims.
