Newbie Here!

Hey everyone! I just wanted to say hi and I'm glad I was turned on to this BB. I just purchased an 86 SR5 PU. It will be my daily driver and it is overall in good condition, but needs some TLC in some areas, especially the interior. I also have a 99 Land Rover Discovery that is dedicated as my trail rig. I bought the Toy knowing that I was NOT going to turn it into a another beast, but I've already found myself looking into solid axel conversions for the IFS.

I am really looking at getting new seats or covers, center console (spelling?), and carpet to start. Anyone have some good leads o where I can find. I'll post a pic tomorrow and let people know what I've already done if interested.

If anyone is interested in seeing my rover pics, go here: http://www.discoweb.org/stevenr/index.htm
There has been more modifications to it but those are what's available on my rover BB

Thanks again,
-Steven

Thanks for the welcome everyone. I think me and my 86 are gonna have fun together! As I was buying it, I was thinking that I was in middle school when this thing hit the showroom. Wow.

Welcome to the board.... Let me know what your looking for in interior parts, I may be able to help....

Seats: Sport buckets or regular seats?
Carpet: ext. Cab, or reg cab?
Center Console: 86 like with no upper storage area, or one with the upper rear storage area....

I got a buddy with a crap load of parts (springfield MO area) and he might have some of the stuff you're lookin for.

Cory, seats are buckets... don't know about sport it is reg cab, the center console has a small storage area in rear next to seats. I really do appreciate the help. I found new carpet from A1 for $98. I didn't think that was too bad, but then again I'm used to buying stuff for Land Rovers $$$
