The truck looks great. Love the color choices and I'm glad to see you're keeping a lot of the trim pieces. These earlier C10s have really grown on me lately. You're building it the same way I would. Good luck with it!

Thank you. I have always liked these trucks. I like them modified but don't want to change the stockish charm if you know what I mean. Here are some pictures of the interior in progress. Dakota RTX dash with stock A/C vents, but with vintage air. The dash is essentially stock looking but I went with black accents for the
"GT" look. Radio is a stock unit, but I had it reworked to control the Audison amp/dsp which powers 2 10" subs, 2 6.5" mids and tweeters. Purists will scream when they see I have cut my virgin doors for speakers but with these trucks you don't have much room and I didn't want kick speakers. There will be grills that match the door panels so you won't actually see them. Modified Budnik wheel, Column shifter with paddles. A/C controls and glove box will be black.

Nice build!

Is the blue a factory color?

Can you share another photo of this? I have a 69 I am planning a box for now and would like to know what subs you went with and how much space you had (depth) in the box behind the seat.

Thanks and beautiful build!!!

Other than the subs installed it still looks the same. I am waiting on my upholstery guy to give me a call to take the truck up to finish, hopefully in the next week or two. The 10" sub's are made by Audison. As are my mid's, tweeters and amp/dsp. I just roughly used the dimensions of the stock fuel tank as a guide for the outside measurements and then used Audison's specs for the sub's idea volume to create each box.

Undestood and thank you for the quick response. Trying to decide if i do a single center mounted sub or this setup with subs on either Side. I think this looks VERY good.
