Buckets on Overhaulin tonight

Dangggg, did you get aload of those - where, when and how???
Does anyone know what those came off of - do they look familar to anyone... I am sure he had them recovered and that houndstooth inserted - but what a great fit.
What about that console? does that look familar to anyone?

Foose does it again - I thought he may over do it on this one - 72's look great without all that foo foo - but he did a GREAT job - everything fit nicely, no sore thumbs....

Help me out guys -- i am at that stage right now. I just got my buckets back from getting recovered (black with red houndstooth centers) they look sharp - but they're not leather and they're not power neither....

Re: Buckets on Overhaulin tonight

Both those guys are really short. I can tell becuase I looked at how the seats fit in there and when they got in. If you are over 5'8", you probably wouldn't like those seats as the backs are really thick.

Oh damn!! Direct TV is slacking, so we can see it twice here....

Hey no problem on the photo man! If you want a disc of the photos, let me know and I'll get it to you. That's what I promised when I posted the meet n greet.



BTW - I'm watching it now..... the paint is orange & black, I think someone mentioned red.

Re: Buckets on Overhaulin tonight

Ok so after rewinding and playing and rewinding and playing and fast forwarding and playing some more... I have concluded that those are the H3 seats with the headrests removed. They do look a little different that way, and there are no clear shots of them after they were reupholstered. But, like was posted above, they are very deep. I know that Chris guy (host) is tall, but when he sat in it, his knees were in the dash! They looked good, but I think a pair of stock buckets w/the houndstooth would look better.

Re: Buckets on Overhaulin tonight

I AGREE, blazer buckets with some nice fabric to cover would look better and truer to the truck.

I noticed that too about the seats...those would be cool for us short folks, but not me, since i look like a pregnant man.... (takes shirt off at the pool, "look mom, that mans pregnant")

It was a very cool truck..... did they forget to put the fuel filler in? I know it's in the bed but they angled the tube to the driver side, as long as the tube was it would seem like it came through the fender, but I didn't see it.

Re: Buckets on Overhaulin tonight

Is that the first time that episode appeared or was it a rerun?

That was the first run. The new season started last week with a 65 Mustang. Unfortunately, this will be the last season... so enjoy it.
