AFAIK no spice interiors before 92, and i'm 99% on that. What do you mean by door sill plates? the little silver strips on top the rocker that always rust away??

either way, both colors spice and tan are hard to find... seems 70% of these trucks had grey interiors and quite a few have red interiors, i'm a big fan of that BRIGHT red they had in 91-93 .. don't like the earlier maroon as much as the blood red. You might be better off dying what you have now!!

a member named "cfarmer" on here has a 91.0 with a beautiful Super LE tan interior in it, something you never see because that seat was 1 year only in that color and style. it has that big puffy LE seat and the fuzzy in the door panels.. maybe you could hit him up for some pics

I miss that truck, it handled and stopped 1000X better than my CTD, but then again it had about 5-600 lbs LESS over the front axle .

Well, the desicion is made BLACK and GOLD is the color my truck will get painted, I was kinda undecided till I scored this find. With the help of a local guy that sells a lot of parts on the forums he turned me on to this darn near complete spice interior, the only thing its missing is the door panels and I even got a good headliner with it. I spent most of the day at the south Omaha U-PULLIT snaging the dash and back corners and some of the belts and a few other odds and ends. Of all the truckes I got parts off of today they were all C.A.R.S program trucks that were in awesome shape

awesome.

It wouldn't be a bad idea to get your seat redone in spice. they're hard to find.

Especially a super LE cloth spcie seat. been looking forever, can't even find any standard LE seats.

Yeah some one had already snagged the seat and doors.

I've thought about doing a black seat, black carpet and black inserts on some spice door panels when I find them and a few other black accents in the cab to make it just a little different

We have almost met a couple of times... I was by the south T.O. one day and saw your truck, decided to stop in and find you to say hi but just as I pulled in you were gettin in your truck and leavin... I also bought some parts off a red 93 W350 from a frined of yours, he said you might be stoppin by that day but didn't see you by the time I left.
