The interior is nothing special. I like that it's the rubber floor instead of carpet. It has a seat cover on it so I figure the seat is in pretty bad shape; however, the foam must be good because it seems really supportive all the way across. I don't have the back jump seats installed; however, they were included with all of the spare parts that came with it.
I'll try to snap some interior photos the next time I drive it.
Yesterday I replaced the header gaskets and hooked up the kickdown linkage. Today I replaced the collector gaskets and created a spacer to raise the air cleaner to keep the kickdown linkage from catching on the bottom of it and hanging the throttle at 3/4.
I didn't see any weights on the rims and tires I installed. I expected it would vibrate like crazy today when I drove it, but not one vibe. She rides great with those new tires. They are a little noisy, but not that bad; especially compared to the Swampers. If I ever get the A/C going and get some tunes in it, I'm sure I won't even notice those tires.

Just saw this thread and love your truck. I think the new wheels and tires look great. You've got me thinking that maybe I need to be thinking about something like that rather than a new one with a payment. Hmmm...

I was thinking how nice your truck would look in solid copper.
Here is a nice short box I saw at a norther show a few years ago. Color is a little different, but gives you an idea.

Gotta love them Power Wagons! Here's mine from the early 90s.
Thanks.
Yep, I don't blame you one bit. I only make payments on one vehicle right now and that's only because it was 0% interest so it didn't benefit me to pay it off.
That does look good. My wife used to have a copper 74 Dart Sport. I've always thought copper looked good.
Nice looking truck you have there.
Sold it a few weeks ago. I enjoyed it for a few years, but glad to see it leave my driveway. I hated having to have it parked outside after it was taken such good care of by the last two owners. Time for someone else to enjoy it now.
