Jimbo-I already had the whole shebang...Door panels, headliner, etc....And I love red....
Bushwhacker-Thanks man....If I keep the Luverne rear bumper, I'll be getting a matching chrome front bumper....If I roll pan it, it'll get the body color treatment....the matte finish silver is FUUUUGGGLLLLYYY.....

Yup....Yesterday...Seems to idle a tad better (100-150 rpms lower, around the 850-ish mark..)....which is good...My truck idles around 900-1,000....W-T-H....Checked everywhere for vacuum leaks, found none...Except a issue that when I spray the #6 injector area with carb cleaner/starter fluid, it just about dies....Sounds electrical to me....
But the overall drivability hasn't been compromised...So idk...
Gonna do a another Seafoam run...Just to make sure...

Thanks man....As said earlier, I already had the maroon....And let's just say the PO wasn't the most caring sort of fellow about the cleanliness...And the old headliner had holes an stains galore.....It also leaves me open to black as a paint option.....
Seems around here maroon is a VERY rare color option.....So yea....Plus it had sentimental value, as it was the interior out of Ethel, my 1994 truck....Pics of it are in my albums.....
