Ok things are starting to pile up for her, so I made a TLC list I will begin hopefully this weekend. Note I wont be doing 1-4 myself.

1. Replace thermostat.
2. Fix small oil pan leak.
3. Replace struts (Blistein struts ordered)
4. Re-upholster my front leather seats
-Issue with that is I think my cloth seats had more cusion than these '99 seats. But I like the '99 adjustable head-rests. So... I may get the my '94 cloth seats leathered up (just like OEM) and swap the head rests... I dunno still debating. If I go that route I will get rid of the '99 seats.
5. Lastly: Totally redo my truck space. Right now the inner plastic lining is missing plastic tabs and the "cardboard" spare tire cover is broken. So I will make my own and somehow integrate some brakets to hold a tool box in place. ANd I need to go to the junk yard and get me some plastic tabs/ screws Im missing. Im not gong for a pimped out look, just a clean look.

Then that should keep me busy.

Depends...

If I decide to redo the '99 leathwer seats it will only be section of them. Mainly the parts that make contact with the user. So it wouldnt be that expensive.

Now if I decided to redo the '94 cloth seats... it will be pricier (theoretically).


I know a local upholster shop and they do good work and dont charge too much.

I remeber asking them awhile back how much to leather up the fronts and backs... I think they qouted me $300.

Yep, you got to constantly be thinking of new things to do to the car so you don't get bored, and you can continue to learn. Good luck! smile.gif
