OK not as nice as the ones above but what do you expect for a 21 year old paint on a red truck here in phoenix, but hopefully that will change after my son gets his truck out of my garage

Srubydo1986 · 04-19-2007, 09:49 PM

i say the red truck is perfect looks great. I would be proud to drive that truck

That red truck is nice. That sun can do damage to your dash also.

Eyegore · 04-20-2007, 06:54 PM

Thanks -well 86 the only damage i have is when the idiots stole the stereo out of it, I have a dash-mat to keep the dash from being to damaged. You can see where the black primer shows through on the hood.

some dick head did the same thing to my truck last april, they tore everything up. I am just now getting to replace it.

Eyegore · 04-21-2007, 12:16 AM

Yeah i'm just replacing mine also, I may have to add a metal plate around the opening, they bent it pretty bad when they pryed it out w/ a crowbar, after they popped the wing window out. My wife ahd it installed as an anniversy present, lasted one month before stolen.

can not friggen have anything....they pryed the bottom metal part of my dash out probably 10 inches, I was able to bend it back but they busted the hell out of the gauge cluster, bezel and dash. I had a dakota digital fixing to go in it, glad it didnt

Srubydo1986 · 04-21-2007, 12:22 AM

ill say it again put sharp object(aka razorblades) behind the dash near radio. thatll stop them im still need to do it to mine had it in my other truck but no one stole it really wanted to see if it worked.

Eyegore · 04-21-2007, 12:23 AM

I feel your pain, through the board I was able to find a used bezel in real good shape, I may get everything done hopefully this weekend.

BaddBusa2005 · 04-22-2007, 01:47 AM
