The Beau James package is cosmetic, much like the Indy Haulers, Gentleman Jims, Chevy Sports and GMC Street Coupes.

Those floor mats are special, keep them in good shape!

The bedside decals are now being reproduced by Phoenix Graphix.

Thanks for the info. I was simply going off what I read online. And the floor mats are cool. We will need to clean them up a bit.

Also, thanks for the decal link. Sent it to my dad to share with my Papa. Hopefully we can repaint the truck back to original colors before adding the decals back.
