Questions on a "71 Custom Deluxe
 

Hello Everyone,

I am new to this site and forum. I just bought an old Custom 10, something I've always wanted. It's really in pretty good shape...just a little rust in the usual places. I'm just going to tool around town it it as I fix it up over time. I do have a question about the bench seat, though. The Parts ID panel says "1601AJ _ Black Cloth Trim". Can anyone tell me what the original seat covers would have looked like? I would love to see an example and find out if they are available anywhere. Thanks.

probably pretty close to the cloth material on mine but I'm not fully sure you have an excellent truck sir I'm quite jealous yours in in such good condition.

Very nice truck - I can remember when that one was for sale! I think you got a very good deal. Here is exactly what the Black Cloth Trim interior should look like:

Thanks, guys, for the pics and info. I really like the truck except for one thing...I intend to use it for a daily driver and there is no A/C. It can get brutally hot here in the summer. I understand you can install air that looks factory. Anybody done it?

Welcome from Central Florida, gets hot here too!
Dam fine truck you have there. Check out Vintage Air, more practicle for your situation than a stock set-up.

I agree I have a vintage air kit ready to go just waiting for my cab and some downtime best setup you can get for your buck other than that love the truck more than the heat haha I know I do

Here's a couple of photos of the OE seat that came in my C30 Custom Deluxe.
Mine is a green cloth seat.
