    I remember when the Chevy Luv first hit the market. I fell in love and have always wanted one. Can't remember the last time I saw one on the road.
    Great video! New sub!

    The job came out fantastic. I tried installing a carpet kit. It literally looks like Stevy Wonder installed it.

    Great job, you probably extended the life of the truck 25 years already. Those door panels are mint.

      Thanks! I thought they were really nice as well. Wish I had a dark grey or black arm rest to go with it. I plan on applying some rust preventative to the whole underbody sometime. Also have some boiled linseed oil to preserve patina without additional rust. But I’m going to drive it for a while now and hopefully get my 4x4 going before winter weather sets in

      @@fabricobbletech If you clean the arm rests up really good you can rattle can them black. My door panels were tan before I painted them. My sun visors were blue. Paint holds up pretty good.

    Would it be better to leave a weep hole in the middle of the floor panels for drainage?

    • @fabricobbletech
      @fabricobbletech  11 месяцев назад

      Tough question because that hole will also allow ingress from underneath. It's definitely one I have pondered, though

      Is, there a chance that you could make homemade crank window seals copying the ones that were in there in the first place? That MIGHT solve your problem, just an idea though.
