Dang bro, I knew you had some skill, but man o man!
Did you do the body and paint yourself? That is sick bro.

Just curious how did you get the interior metal painted?? I was thinking of thinning out some real quality urethane or something high gloss an do the inside by hand. But, I kind of like the same color inside and out idea. I gotta real bad crunch on the corner of the bed that I don't know what to do with. I gues I will get someone to cut it and weld it. It is pretty big to try to fill up.

That's a hot one.  It looks good on the outside and has some nice bling under the hood.  Nice work.

I actually bought that grille off another member here and I haven't seen him back on here in about 3 years or more. He bought it from AIM industries but it was in rough shape so I had to re-do the whole thing but I got it from him for cheap if I remember right. http://www.airbagit.com/product-p/bil-ch-9.htm has them I think but their website is one of those that the pix don't show the actual product so you have no idea what you are really buying. I've also heard a lot of customer complaints about this place so buy at your own risk (I am not endorsing them)

I saw another 85 with one posted on ebay not long ago. I think they look great! Is the insert removeable? I'd like to paint it to match the truck!

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL TRUCK!!!

Maybe I missed it somewhere but what is that color called?!?

That's one of the best looking interiors I've seen too! Surely those aren't factory seats? Are they? If not what are they out of?

It's not out of anything. It's a new seat.

They're new seats http://www.qualitex.com/seatstruckers.html

The paint is BC02 Subaru Blue
