I know many of us like to keep things as original as possible but I thought it would be cool to see modifications that some have done, maybe even things that can be easily removed to take it back to original?

Here is an overhead console I built in Fi-Fi. It houses two 6X9 speakers and provides two shelves for storgae of things like sunglasses, gloves, pens, pistols, knives, etc.

Note the ingenuous use of an old truck cap in the background.

Let's see yours!

 

I use a couple of old truck caps to store my vintage garden tractors........not as "high tech" as yours tho...........mine just set on cinder blocks.......LOL.......before that they served as temporary housing for the wifes chickens..............

 

I wanted my tach on the dash but also wanted it to look like it somewhat belonged:

 

My whole truck is a custom modification..lol

 

Modified the front bumper ala LMC's $200+ lighted bumper. The lights came from a mid-90s Pontiac product.... a Bonneville if I recall correctly.

 

This for a 2WD but can also be done to a 4WD.

 

No AC on the 73 so it made a logical place for four switches - inner roof, outer roof, driving, and fog lights. The finger guard is a drawer pull. Chromed!!!

Below is a fabbed a switch panel that control the LED rock lights, ICU cooling fan, back-up lights, DRLs, and an auxiliary battery disconnect.

 

Dummied up... the ICU and its computer cooling fan is in the background.

 

WOW! That is some impressive stuff!

HIO Silver.....can you tell me what wiring is behind that battery switch? I have a battery disconnect at the battery for when I work on the truck and when it will sit for a while, but it would be super convenient to have a switch in the cab!

 

wrapped the interior of the truck in vinyl..











Created a floating support for amp and built some 6X9 enclosures and put in 1200 watt 6X9's for behind the seat

 

Love the stereo equipment behind the seat but where would I put my gun rack

 

lol..this is true..
have to just have a little pull out tray from under the seat for the "peacemaker"..

 

I don't have a spot for a toy in Ka'Bluey, but a nice little cubby hole in my 2013.

The switch controls the power to the auxiliary battery relay only when the engine is running.

 

I was referring to rifles in deer season I have a two gun rack behind my seat and a two gun rack in the rear window. I guess I could give up one of them The Glock goes in the overhead console
