THanks guys.

The one on left is the Silverado.

Started a bit of interior work today, making some door panels.





This will be the backing for the custom door panels. Both sides were cut from 1/8 inch particleboard, traced from the original door panels. Then the window crank and door handle holes were drilled out. Later the mounting screw holes will be drilled once I get a final fit (still a bit of trimming here and there, but for now both fit up real good) and the bottomc corners will be rounded. Arm rests will be made, and like the Copperhead from Trucks!, will mount in the stock location, but stretch forward to cover part of the door handle. Just the round part, leaving the handle sticking out enough to grab. Giving it a more modern look.
