Hey Rory!
Thanks for the compliments on the truck. I sure do like it! My dad owns it now and drives it everyday. I miss the truck, but couldn't fit my growing family in anymore.
The seats I had redone at a local mom and pop shop several years ago. If you search for threads started by me you will find it.They still look great.
The bumper hitch is a funny thing. I had people giving me a hard time about that for a long while, but if you look underneath it is like you said a hitch with a bumper cover on it basically. The only issue was the height of the ball.
The body work was great to see my dad put some love into. I wanted to do that for years, just all my inside deals kept falling through. Glad it is done and looks great. This truck being in the family since new is the best truck to keep around.
Thanks for sending me a note, sorry it took a long time to respond. I was just in this system for some password thing and I saw the message.
