Thanks guys. I will post some more pics after I tackle the interior. Cleaning, detailing and maybe dyeing some pieces. And I will likely pick up those nice bumpers from the j/y and some nicer door handles I saw too if they are cheap enough, and finally I want a solid rear glass.
Mopar Truck: thanks for the compliments. That's how I felt about some of the guys before me who painted theirs. If you really want some more tips on the painting use the Google feature in this site and look up "paintjob on a budget". There's three of them and they have thousands of posts on techniques and tips and progress/results pics. It's what I used as my guide.

Ok, I wasn't sure if you had seen them or not. No Roe is just my last name, but my Drill SGT's had fun with it at basic. I've been in pushing 5 yrs now.
For the trim piece are you talking about the piece on the cab, the really small curved piece. If so I pulled it and all of the clips for the rest of my trim from the j/y. If you need one let me know and I can keep my eyes peeled the next time I go out there. I'd just need to know if it's driver or passenger side.

What can I say except what an awesome site and bunch of guys. It is the long piece that goes along the bottom of the door of my 90 LB. This is a pic from when I first bought it: The cargo and dome light is for my 86, I dont know if you can see it in this pic but I believe they are all the same: I bought the 86 first when I first retired a few years ago as a project and dropped a rebuilt 318 in it then the 90 (blue one in the picture above) was supposed to be a parts truck but I got it running like new and its my DD for the past 2 years, then I ended up at an auction and picked up a cherry 91 SB for $1200 that I am going to paint using the roller method after some minor body work and then a few months ago I ended up with a 63 Utiline with a cherry body and a stuck engine for $800. I have a tolerant wife!
