are those the replacement seat covers from LMC?

Ive done all the exact same things almost, just need to recover the seats like yours,

I did the dash, door panels, and the rhino liner, but those seat covers really make it look like a new truck.

from what ive read he has an upholstery shop near where he lives who does all his cars. Very nice work indeed! But those door panels look brand new to me! I know in the past he has dyed those. I wonder if he did the same with these?

....this truck has 19K ORIGINAL miles that's why the door panels look so good. But I did dye them with SEM vynal dye from Eastwood.

I don't think you would be able to use the Herculiner on the underside because its rolled on. For tough rust i would use POR 15 and brush it on over the rust. Then just use the rubber under coat spray.

Yep, I have a guy recover the seats in a leather like high grade material


Here is a Deuce I did... miss that truck!!

The BAR HAS BEEN SET!!
I love the truck, would like even better in CAMO, but none the less.
VERY NICE!!!
I was considering the Herculiner, but wonder about the smell and then how it would act being shutup in 105 degree heat in Texas Summer??? wonder if it would soften up or even become tacky???

GREAT TRUCK!!

Thanks, for all the comps!

Tires are 31/12.5/15 I think they are the best size without a lift

Herculiner stuff works great in cold and hot with no smell once dry. However wear a mask this stuff REALLY smells when you are working with it. Minimum sound deadening qualities, but like I said I have used it a number of time on the M35a2 interior, and bed and on my all my pick up beds with great success.

I will get the number to the Tuffy console and post it later. The only mod I had to do was put a spacer in under the front bottom to level the console out.

tires

Correction...I was in a hurry yesterday and typed in the wrong tire size...

the truck had 31/10/15 and I replaced them with 33/12.5/15's that work and fit perfect.

The truck had the seat hinge covers on it, but I would try to find some take offs from a parts truck.

Did the front grill push guard come the way we see it now?

Or did you modify it to suit a specific customer request?

What are those two front 'things' and is that a piece of steel up front?

LOOKS GREAT BTW. Love your work.

Guess I'm gonna have to pop for the leather replacements for the seats. THEY DO MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE in how the finished product looks.

11+ on your work (out of 10)

thanks!

The push bars came on the truck, I think it was a convoy escort of some kind and the military installed those in the front of the brush guard.

Thanks Mike! I think my trucks are just as nice a Alfa's they use the stock interior and mine is MUCH upgraded from original. They do a nice job on camo paint and that's not a easy as it looks.

Customer has pick up the truck and is very happy with the results. He is also going to joint the SS family!
