Thanks Dennis. I'll see if I can get the other one done by the end of the week if I have time. I love the "stock tubbed" look.

Very nice . I see Delmo just added a piece to the inside instead of the center. That would make it half as much welding? yours looks more orginal though. I don't think his has the rounded edge.

I like the "looks like stock only better", or the "what the hell did he do here" look.

Thanks Dennis. Any suggestions for what to do with the extra couple inches in the wheel well?

Oh I work, I just keep a little different hours than most. I did a pinup shoot yesterday and "worked" for about 12 hours.

12 hours you must be beat. I do 6 and I have to go home cause my back hurts. Funny it never hurts when I'm working on my truck or goofing off.:lol: I count my coffie by the pots.:uhmk:

I got the seats yesterday and they're really nice. They fit like they were made for the truck too. The lines on the side trim are perfect for the area where the seat mounts. There are a few marks that will probably clean right off and I had to pick shattered glass out from between the cracks, but I'm really happy with them.

The donor door's holes are a little lower in the front and don't line up so I'll have to fill em' and drill new ones to line up. The bed trim is 20" longer than the bed. It must have grown over the last few years when it was on the shelf.:lol:

That's weird.:smoke: Seats look good.

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
 
The seats look really good, but I would take off the head rests. Just my 2 cents. :metal:
