Default 1994 Silverado

Hey everyone. So I posted a while back, my uncle gave me his old Silverado. A 1994 2wd ext cab. 218k on all original 305 v8. No big mods-except for a throttle body spacer cold air intake and cat back exhaust (flowmaster)he always kept great care of it and has the record from every oil change he did from the first day he drove it off of the lot brand new.
The paint is pretty rough- I originally wanted to do an Ls swap, but I think for now I am going to focus on body and some interior issues since the truck runs strong.
He brought the truck up about a month and a half ago. ( I’m in upstate NY) It’s been my work in progress since. The body and frame are in really good shape, interior is rough and paint is definitely in need of help. It’s had some small issues, replaced the water pump, heat actuator, did the fuel pump (before realizing the issue was the ignition coil).
I’ll post some pictures of the truck below, my question is does anyone know of the best places to get interior parts. I’ve been scouring Craigslist. But everyone wants a million dollars for every part they have.

Does LMC Truck carry interior parts?

Carpart or ebay is a good option sometimes for used parts.

I guess I should’ve mentioned I’m on a budget lol. I’ve seen dashboards for 400+$ that are used. As much as I want it to look great I can’t justify that much for a dash, maybe I’m being unrealistic for prices... Found seats a couple hours away from me, guy wants 200$ for them. Bucket seats with a center console as well.

Default Update

So craigslist paid off. Found a 94 with great interior for 600$. Grabbed that and started some interior work. I ended up
getting the seats previously posted with a new steering box as well as more interior parts for around 225$ total. Today was interior work day and got a decent amount done given the temperature drop in the afternoon.


Beginning the tear down
60/40 pulled out of my truck
Shampooed the carpet while we had the seats out
Swapped the rear bench and also got the drivers’ side seat installed.
Finished product for today
At this point the main goal is to get the interior all swapped. Did some other small swaps as well with some panels that needed to be replaced. It doesn’t look brand new, but on a budget I’ll take it and it looks way better than before. Still have to install the center console and well as passenger seat and run the power wire for drivers’ electric controls
