Yeah i can get in and out of it rather easy for the most part.
I do need to get a set of Bucket Seats for it tho or a lower profile bench.

Yeah man. It looks terrific. Makes me wish I hadn't of sold, or really gave away, my black '88 crew cab 3&3 trailer special back in '08 or so when gas around here got to spittin' distance of $4.00. That 454 would only get around 6 mpg and that was sitting in the driveway.
Glad I at least kept the 3/4 ton reg cab dually that I'm working on now.

The regular cab 3/4 ton dually that I'm working on, if you consider gathering parts for it working on it, has the stock 305 and standard tranny in it which helped keep milage somewhat reasonable. Those will get changed, this summer hopefully, to a late style LS motor and 4L80 trans which should help the go factor quite a bit.
