woodgrain instrument cluster
« on: January 18, 2013, 08:00:16 am »
I've been looking for an original looking wood grain instrument cluster for my 73 c20 Cheyenne to no avail. Also my dash is pretty split up. How can I find a dash that matches the original interior? 70s' green. Can gm bucket seats bolt in to the same pattern or will i need to do some fab. work?

Checked the store here. All that I saw was the standard metal ones. Same as other sites I checked.

The bucket seat brackets out of a suburban are what you need. They are spot welded to the floor.

Real trucks are built, not bought Build thread

Give me a long enough lever and a place to stand, and I shall move the earth or break this bolt...Whatever, just hold my beer!

     E-mail the store, Capt. is pretty good about getting back with the info if it is available.
