Haha what’s up man what color interior you got? I got some tan and black door panels front and rear I actually got the full tan interior minus the dash all the way to the trunk area whatever you need let me know I’ll hook you up I’m towards the down east area about 45 min from swansboro

Don’t want much for em you’ll need speaker covers where the speaker grills have been cut out but covers will only cost 20$
25$ a door panel sound cheap enough? I have no use for em and really need em gone to be honest
Got front rear and all the tan plastic pieces
There’s paint you can get to paint the tan black if you really wanted to color match em I think lmc truck sells the vinyl paint or you could try duplicolor vinyl repair paint
Like I said I’m about 45 min from swansboro
I also got all the electronics and the factory nav touchscreen radio to get rid of along with plenty of other odds and ends like 3rd row seats and different items

 

[Trey Hardy]

Speaker grills will be like this
No big deal but you’ll need it for the cosmetics of course

Welcome to the forum from Oregon, from another Navy guy. Thanks for your service. Out in 2002? IIRC, all sub guys had 6 years active because of being nukes?

Maybe you can answer. Doesn't nukes have a 6 year active enlistment?

Yep 4+2 for nuke training and as far as I can tell retention and manning is a still a problem. I did a tiger cruise with my son and yep, not for me! The crew, however, was really top notch. Full props to our silent service bubbas!

I was just the opposite. At 6'4" there was never a consideration of being on a sub. Too tall. I went 180 degrees the opposite way and was on the aircraft carrier Kitty Hawk CV-63. Lots of noise generated there. The most fascinating thing I ever saw and still is to this day, is flight ops on the carrier deck. Launching jets on the foredeck and recovering jets on the angle deck, at the same time. I would still be using one word to describe if asked, just WOW!

Welcome aboard! Lots of great people and good information here on this forum. Mods do a good job of keeping the bs to a minimum. Beautiful area of NC! We race every year in Morehead City and I spent some time at the lovely Camp Lejeune as a young man.
In my opinion these older trucks are well worth the time and money to keep on the road. The new ones are expensive and not exactly trouble-free. Good luck with your project!
