Ok today in between doing a ton of outside the house stuff I....

Located a good set of black door panels w/chrome and cleaned them up, have to do just a touch of work on them. Also have a good set black arm pads and metal finger cups to go with them.

Got my seat belts redyed black with Rit, they were sun faded to a light grey. They were as grey as the retractor covers!
Painted my seat belt covers, after deciding to go with black.

Located a set of black w/chrome hinge visors and cleaned them up.
Located and cleaned up a chrome head liner strip.

Still working on my grab handle idea... and painted black and installed the visor end pin catch.

Well go the dome light issue fixed, replaced both door spring switches and had a bad elec connection in a plug.

Now on to the turning signal issue.....I got my new flasher unit today.

The contacts in the turn signal switch itself are bad for getting corroded in these trucks, Rich. Alice still has a flaky left turn signal. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't.

I think I am going to do complete column and swap, with a non tilt one in alot better shape.

And flip the 4 spd tilt steering column on here.
