I never thought of that. But yeah, They look like that to me too. I just told the upholstry guy to put matching stitching for the seats.

New list to complete:

1) Interior : Carpet and Door Panels this week. DONE
2 ) Send to Bio Kustoms to have the howl fixed and add shocks re-work 3-link etc. At Max's now
3 ) Tune-up adjust valves, change trans fluid, general maintenace, possible timing belt just as a precaution.
4 ) Electric Fan
5 ) fix A/C with parts from the roadster.
6 ) Find OEM front fenders/hood/core support and replace poorly installed aftermarket units. Install my LX front bumper, UNSHAVE gas door key hole, install stock radio antenna and install my sweet stock tailgate. (I want the truck to look as if in 1991 I put on wheels and dropped the truck.)
7 ) Body work and red/orange primer
8 ) raised red oak bed floor w/ polished stainless strips and angled bed sides.
9 ) Have wheels straightend and re-polished.
10) Electric Glass sliding sunroof
11) Candy apple red paint, (Factory lt. blue like my old truck?) with old school pin striping. Install chrome drip rail, window garnish, factory fender trim and B2200 emblems.
12) Go to Low Down 3

Maybe Item 12 will happen before item 6??

Not yet, I had to go to Spain for work and I got back late last night. I need to see what happened at Max's. Hopefully he fixed the "howl" and the other questionable suspension problems.

I am supposed to get it back Monday. They re-bagged the front, added f/r RCD Bilstein shocks, re-linked it, plated the frame and slung the rear from my old truck under it. It was way more work that I thought it needed, but at leats I know it will be "right".
