Got rear speakers, amp, and sub in and wired. Sounds pretty good. Still have front speakers to do. And put black vinyl on rear of cab to cover entire back wall.

Vinyl flooring is in turned out pretty good had to use heat gun get some spots to lay down. I'm not a fan of carpet in a truck why I went with vinyl. Seats are done and wired up and working.

Be moving on to sill and threshold plates. And do door panels and front speakers.

Getting few things finished up calibrated speedometer to work with tires, few other things. Texas has a 30 day permit I got so can drive it to get inspection done so can get tags. Then get alignment done. Then windows tinted, lastly get truck fully detailed and I'll be done. Then can finally enjoy truck.

Thanks kren.        Got alignment done and inspection done yesterday. Was kinda worried about inspection keep seeing some people saying if vehicle is 25 years or older no emissions or exhaust check. Only safety inspection. Others saying if it had Cadillac converters from factory then has to have them. Being a 1987 it had them originally. Went to get inspection and since truck is 25 years or older only had to do safety inspection so it worked out. No Cadillac converters. Just thought I would share this info, in case someone is wondering. This is in Texas, probably different from state to state.
