Re: 1980 Short Stepper Budget Build
Got the interior almost done. I upholstered the door panels, and dash pad out of a parts truck. Not perfect, but only cost about $40. Seat was upholstered, heat shield, and new carpet. Still have map pockets, kick panels, and visors left to do. I also have to dye the seatbelts, and install the carpet door bottoms.

Re: 1980 Short Stepper Budget Build
Had a nice full day to work on the truck yesterday. I put it on the lift, detailed the frame and undercarriage, touched up any scratches on the suspension, painted the rotors and calipers, and cleaned and undercoated the front, and rear fenders. I also painted, and installed a new oil pan. I am hoping to wrap this project up this weekend.

I use a 4 way stretch upholstery vinyl. It's stretched around the top, and glued around the back side. I use the same stuff for the door panels. Works well, I used the same stuff on my k10, and it has held up very well.

Re: 1980 Short Stepper Budget Build
Do you have any before pics of the dash? Just curious how bad it was. What prep work did you do?
