Face lift........

One of our most favorite places to go is Pull A Part. If you have never been there you really need to go. For all you junk yard goers this place is the bomb. check it out at www.pullapart.com. So Tom and I went to our local pull a part junk yard and got a great deal on some accessory items. We purchased, all used of course, a new seat, green carpet & kick panels, the green seat belts, black dash pad, chrome grill insert and matching headlight bezels. The donor truck we found was a 1979 Ranger XLT. We paid about $70 dollars for the whole lot of great stuff. We had painted the dash white to get rid of that horrible red. The door panels received a custom green and white paint job with some silver accent. The green carpet we brought home was to cover the old tattered rubber mat in the truck. The new seat we found looked great but it wore out fast. It was still a great deal. The dash pad was not in perfect shape as the last guy put a screw through the right side to hold it on. All in all the truck got a face life and it was a great improvement from its before condition.
