Re: Help before I jack this up.

as to the body work you can make a thread on that in the body section but IMHO its cheaper and better to replace the rusted pieces. Used parts or aftermarket parts are cheap and plentiful plus you have a junkyard friend
the interior you should prolly use the brackets from your existing seat and try to get another set for the split seats. otherwise make something and learn to weld
use grade 8 bolts nuts washers and lock washers and youll be fine
as to the suspension work i wont tell you how to do that because i think lowering is blasphemy lol but if you wanna add a lift kit.....
actually i dont know jack about lowering so ill leave that to the experts.. meanwhile go get some pics of that bad boy and post em up
good luck and welcome aboard
