Not mopar...But my first restore

I guess I never thought about using a different steering shaft. I just made due with what I had. As far as a tilt column I fought myself long and hard on that. What it came down to was where I want to go with the pickup. I want it to feel like an old pickup. With that in mind I thought it would be cool to keep the old column with the great big steering wheel. May not be as handy, but really gives it that nostalgic feeling that I am looking for. I want the interior to be simple just as it use to be. My plan is to also have a completely hidden sound system to keep on the same track. As far as the transmission column I hate to admit but I wasn't smart enough to think of that. :BangHead: but I guess we are learning every day. Maybe one day I will change that but for now i'll leave it how it is. I LOVE the advice tho! It's always nice to get extra ideas and opinions bouncing around. As far as heating and ac I am planning on using a similar unit to the vintage air just summits version. Lot cheaper, but its just a heater. Going to leave the ac off for now until I am not on a collage kid budget. Its awful hard to build a pickup while trying to pay for collage and start my adult life. Its coming along but its about to hit a major pause, as I got a job for the summer that's 7 hours from home. Won't be coming back on the weekends to work all summer this year :(
