    Factory 83-87 stereo question

    When I bought my truck I noticed my dash wasn't hacked up. Since I'm not sure what I'm doing for a stereo just yet, I purchased a stock AM/FM radio from a gentleman and it even has the knobs! Anyway, I noticed after I tried installing it that the jam nuts weren't with the stereo. Now what?! I...

    77 yellow trim?

    Thanks! I need to put the interior back together today so I can start cleaning up the wheels and also remove the front bumper guard. She needs a 4-6" drop but that'll have to wait a few weeks. @Rusty Nail

    Dang! I can’t believe I didn’t hear about this. I totally could have gone too! Is anyone from this meetup going to Good Guys this weekend? I would love to meet up with some of the Az guys if anyone will be there. @74 Shortbed @R10C10

    77 yellow trim?

    Mine’s a 77 Cheyenne with all the chrome strips and it’s all yellow except for one that wore off. I didn’t know that when I bought it but it’s pretty cool!

    Here ya go. I’m not a big fan of this one since it’s not the look I’m going for so it’s gonna have to come off this week. It’s available if anyone wants it! :)

    from AZ- two times the trouble

    I’ll be there with my father in law and his brother, 2 more old looking guys. :D I’ll be there in my truck. Down in the grass where the real fun is.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Unfortunately I do have a couple corners with rust but they're kinda small. I'm just gonna drive this thing the way she sits and enjoy it for a few years.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I've got enough left to put in and on the doors, as well as the headliner area. I need to figure out what I'm doing for door panels then I'll get to work. I'm planning on installing speakers in the doors and behind the seats so as much as this stuff I can slap on any piece of metal will help...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I picked up my seat last week, spent a few days on the Fat Mat (that stuff takes forever!). Threw in some extra padding / heat shield (AZ summers SUCK) and carpet. After that I installed the seat! 3 days off and on installing the fat mat and it only took about 6 hours to install the carpet and...

    Door speaker cover / pod

    With the work that I do, I spend a ton of time behind the windshield. I love some killer tunes with great sound. I would like for the speakers to be hidden. Reflecting off the windshield would work great but I've got to make sure the guy that recovered my seat can redo my dash. If so, i'll see...

    Door speaker cover / pod

    I'll for sure put the 6x9's behind the seat with corner brackets. The factory spot in the middle of the dash would work but I am a bit of an audiophile and I would rather have great sound filling all around me. How does it sound in the dash? I don't want it to sound like it's just coming from...

    Door speaker cover / pod

    Alright, so on my long drive back home to Phoenix from Las Vegas, I was thinking about options for the truck to stay awake. I was thinking of options for speakers and came up with a couple options. I really hate the idea of seeing the speakers. I want them high enough so that I can hear them but...

    Interior light, open door switch

    I remember seeing those wires, there were 3 total. The 2 you were talking about and this one black one. I was hoping it was for something else (later model pillar cab light switch wire) or a door plunger wire, but no such luck. I guess I could always add the plunger and repurpose that wire if I...

    Interior light, open door switch

    They had that in 77? Hmm. Interesting... Looks like I'm going to forget about it then! Ain't nobody got time for that!

    Interior light, open door switch

    I found a wire while I was ripping out my single cab interior. I'm thinking it has something to do with the cab light but I don't have a door plunger in my truck. This connector was just hanging out by my drivers side seat belt. It ran along the sill plate, under the carpet and up into the fuse...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Spent a few hours in the sun ripping out the entire interior. Made a mess, but got the carpet, gaskets, headliner and door panels all taken out. Scraped the dirt and carpet remnants out and vacuumed it all out (including inside the doors). Now I just need to get the carpet kit and sound proofing...

    Door speaker cover / pod

    Ya, I'm only interested in doing either 5" or 6.5" components. I may have to build out a little bit behind it so the speaker will be surface mount or something similar. I haven't even taken the door panels off yet so I have no clue if they're going to fit recessed or not. I do have crank windows...

    Door speaker cover / pod

    DUDE! That 6x9 one would work perfectly! I wasn't really planning on going with 6x9's but that might just be easier. I really wanted a 6.5" component set but i'll have to see what other products they sell. I'm sure it's not just those 4 items. Thanks @Craig 85!

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I'll be dropping it and cleaning up the exterior as well. I got really lucky with this one and it's been a pretty fun project so far!

    What have you done to your square lately??

    It's got a little rust, been re-painted in a few places but other than that it's in really good shape. Unfortunately the interior is roasted. I'm trying to get it cleaned up enough to get it into GoodGuys in a few weeks. The 2 tone is my inspiration to keep me going. I want that look BAD

    Door speaker cover / pod

    I would love to do that... I just like them to not look like speakers or be concealed as much as possible
