  • Getting prepared for 2015 HRPT

    Had a lot going on the past few month's and hope I can start getting the truck preped for the 2015 HRPT now. One of the first things I have done is a new engine cover made for it along with new brake system installed. I need to buy the rear disc system now. Next are the seats and interior redo. I bought a set of 99 Tahoe electric/heated seats with a console. Have to have them recovered though. Have them all working except for the drivers side heat. Going with after market heaters I think though.
    Retirement is better than I thought!

        Seat Heaters???? Cooled seats are a much better choice for PT.

        Andy, are you going to Goodguys this weekend?

          Yea man plan to be there Saturday. I'm coming up Friday night. Going to stay in Conover with my dad. Why, you got something planned. I was going to rigister the truck on line but life got in the way. My mom passed away the last of September so I've been going back and forth to dad's to keep him company. Haven't done a whole lot. I ordered some more goodies this morning for it though! CPP rear disc brakes for it with drilled slotted rotor and S/S lines.
          I got a lot to do but it should be worth it. The seats are for this winter driving to work. For $100.00 at the local LKQ yard I couldn't turn them down. My 08 Tahoe has them and it's nice. I got a couple of pairs of seat belts with shoulder harness also. Red/Grey if anybody is interested in a set.

                      Thanks, my brother has another one almost like it. Instead it has globes for the lights instead of the candle sticks. It came out of a bar in Chicago.
                      Yea the wife and I are looking forward to seeing it hanging up. I'll post some more pictures this weekend after we get there.

                          Andy, if plans change and you get to Goodguys give me a call. We did the poker run yesterday, and doing Detroit Speed open house tonight. Holohan's has dinner at his shop tomorrow night.

                          Sorry to hear about your mother.
