Made good progress on getting my new bucket seats in today. Just have to work on the console a little. Scored these seat belts today, I think they will work OK. It was a lot of cutting and welding on the seat brackets, as these are Toyota seats. Next, I need to work on the door panels and dash, have to get them to match the seats better. The other pics are just various ones I took today after a good wash job. Just wanted to share them with you all. The last one is my other hobby. I hope they are not to big. Thanks for looking.

Thanks everyone for the nice comments, I really appreciate it. Yea, that's the wife. Been married 17 yrs now. She probably would not be happy with her pic on here, but I won't tell her. She is pretty good about not complaining about me spending money on my toys.

Bluex-The tail lights are out of a 1970 Camaro, and I am not really sure what the drop is. I did it 20 yrs ago. I would say probably 3" in the front and 4" in the back. We just cut it until we liked it. Did not have lowering kits back then. Did it the old fashioned way, cut and weld.

Thanks again for the comments.
