Might want to hold out and spend the coin on a GM dash pad, not an aftermarket one. NOTHING fits and looks as nice as a GM pad, ask anyone here who has replaced theirs with an aftermerket...including me.

You see them on eBay from time to time, or find a good used one. New will usually be 250+, used you can still get good deals on if you are patient and keep your eyes peeled.

I built a frame out of 2x4 3/16 thick square tube. To the back of the cab where it mets the bed then it is a 2x2 square tube bridged from the cab back.

Did you reverse the rear door windows? If so, why?
Not bagging on that or anything just curious!

Heres a pic with the top part way open

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
 
I am working on the top. It will slide into the bed. The bed will raise up then the top will slide by electric motor into a track under the bed cover. And then reverse to put the top back on.

I had 40inch Hawgs on my one ton, and they had to be my favorite. They lasted a long time and worked great in the mud and snow, but the sound they made going down the freeway was pure music.
