My '95 C1500 "BUILD"
Hey Everyone! Here's a truck that I've had a few years and some pics to sow the small modifications I did to make it my own. Thanks for looking! Comments and opinions welcome!

Re: My '95 C1500 "BUILD"
Update on those heater controls... I went to the junkyard looking for some center consoles that would accommodate the HVAC controls. Found some that would work but not really look like i wanted so I left empty handed. That night me and my girl were talking about it and I told her I was thinking about just building one from scratch. She pretty much laughed and said she didnt think one could be built and still look good. Well, I dont take that kind of stuff lightly and told her I would build one lol.. This is the almost finished product built with materials I already had in the garage from previous projects. Keep in mind I still need to wrap the sides in the gray vinyl and do a little more cosmetic work on inside the armrest. I also installed 3 white leds, and two 12v outlets inside the console and another in the glove box, no smoking in my truck so no need for the ashtray. Anyways, tell me what yall think...
took a few more pics of it after messing with the outlets a little..
well... I cant say I'm happy with it but I tried to wrap the console.. was having a really hard time stretching it even with a heat gun and an extra set of hands. the edges of it didnt come out like I wanted but it will have to do for now.. Ill post some pics but dont make too much fun of me lol...
