repaint interior 69

not sure exactly where/how to start pulling interior pieces to start painting. This is my fathers truck and we made a bet that if i painted his interior this week he would stop drinking soda pop and drop a couple pounds. back on topic i already have the paint but am not sure if it would be easier to remove seat, dash and carpet and repaint while its still in the truck or if it would be easier to pull the pieces out and paint.:)

definitely pull the pieces out of the truck. that way you wont have any over spray and it will look a whole lot better being completely painted. any pictures of the truck?



oh and by the way

Seat is four 1/2" bolts, tank is 7/16" IIRC, pull the gauge cluster, radio (if it's still there), and the glove box, the dash pad is 3/8" IIRC, steering wheel is a bit of a challenge but comes out pretty easily just pull the bolts under the dash and the ones in the firewall. You can wrap the pedals to keep them from getting painted, pull the door sills and you should be able to pull the floor matting... Pull the front and rear glass if you can the front will be a pain if its ever been glued in... rear window is simple, mask the quarter glass off as those are a royal PITA to pull...
