It may look like a beater on the outside...

...but the interior is shaping up.

I finally got tired of my tired old interior since I bought my truck. My truck is a Highlander and my ultimate goal is to recover the seat in with the Highlander plaid. But until I save up $600 or Truckseats lowers the price, I'm going to live with this seatcover off eBay. Also added new 3-point seat belts.

Not a bad match at all. I like the belt set up too.

Looks great Bill.

That guest badge looks familiar.

Looks like it will March before we get back up your direction so set aside some time for the auction.

Looks very nice!!! I just bought that exact same cover off ebay also. I thought it would look good in my light blue truck. Where did you get the seat belts??? Were they hard to install???

Wayne, I hung that up on the mirror after the Mecum auction that night and just never got around to taking if off.
BTW, I checked Mecum's website the other day and didn't see a blue and white 71 registered for the Dallas auction. There's still time to register for the All-Truck Nationals.

Ordered the seat belts from Seatbeltplanet.com. They are a company in Oklahoma City that sells these under a couple different names. It took a little doing, but installation was no big deal.
