Its a 1991 burb front seat. Custom brackets to sit lower in the truck, and it still has factory sliders. I have always thought these were a very comfortable seat.

Hardwaa, i found this thread from your CL ad. I love the truck! I have seen your truck around town, I'm a big fan. I had no idea how much work went in to it. To bad you're selling it, but it will be nice to fit the whole fam. I had the same problem, that's why I bought my suburban.

Hope to see you around, now that it's finally cruising weather. Oh yeah!

A couple old videos criusing home from Goodguys last November. Sorry about the quality or lack of.

I cant say enough about the quality of ride this truck has. My buddy Thomas said it best. "This truck rides nicer than my new GMC 1/2 ton and my feet are like 3 inches of the freeway, B I T C H EN!! "

Man I wish like hell I could afford to buy that truck off you. I'm sure I've said it before, but that is one of my favorite trucks on this board. I hope she goes to a good home.

Pretty sure I saw it was tore apart for drivetrain update and forsale again.

Bummer.

Still one of my most favorite trucks.
