[wedgeheaded]

Making some progress on my dually. Most recently my interior, so now I can move on to my doors, fenders, etc.

Those seats look like they fit well. They out of a newer Ram?

You have a pretty wild looking gear lever.

Any chance of a close-up please?

2014-16 Laramie. I bought them at the mopar nats a couple yrs ago. DS 8 way pr, lumbar, heat/cool, PS 4 way, lumbar, heat/cool. I didn't hook up the heat as they are controled by the computer, which I don't have. I also had to mod up new mounts as the OE didn't even come close.

I found this 12ga in a dump with a busted stock when I was 10. Brought it home, propped it up in the corner. Years later it migrated to the back of a closet. Years after that, while working on my D350, I found it again and the wheels started turning. I cut the shoulder rest away leaving only the pistol grip part. So, I've had it 50yr and never fired a shot through it, and wouldn't. But it makes a cool shifter.

A couple more pics. This bay of the garage is 16x32 and hard to get a good shot in.

Well, I finished everything on the outside, enough to be driving it anyway. I drove it to the Mopar Nats in Columbus, Oh. on the 13th. here's a few pics of nearly done and done.

Where did you find the mirrors? Or did they come with the truck?

Great looking truck, you can see a lot of work went into this. Really nice job.

I bought them from ebay. The mirrors fit nice but the mounting brackets were way off. I had to elongate the holes into slots to make them work. If I remember right they were around $125 for the pair, power too.
