Pictures and stuff! Repainted the 92

Repainted the White on the 92 D250, which is the truck that took place of the Grey 93 when we sold it. Also been fixing up the interior, Transplanted the buckets out of the club cab before we sold it. Got the Cruise and everything working. What a great truck so far, Got 23.8 MPG at 75-80mph with cruise set!

Here's some pics during, and current pics at the bottom




Done--- Sanded the flares up and painted them black






Picked up a lighted Cab visor off Craigslist and painted it "PE7 Colorado Red"


interior




And random pics, one of my truck parked next to all my friends at school, and my new clutch i'm putting in tomorrow

Looks good!


How do the CC buckets fit into the Reg cab? Good seating position?

Unless it's untaxed, then it's red.

The passenger side is mounted solid from the factory so we had to move it's mounting position like 2.5 inches forward to allow the back to be in a comfortable reclined position.

But the driver side is nice. If you're over 6' I would not recommend them though, the driver seat back hits the back of the cab the way it is set now. Which it's set for me and my dad at 5'9 and a comfortable reclined position.

Wow, that's a smart looking truck. Nice and clean. Not a big fan of red but I would own that, looks good. The grey interior seals it. Got to get rid of my soft eights and find some rims like that. Nice job.

Hard to go wrong with a truck that will get 24 mpg, haul anything, always run and look that good.
