Updated seating
In the process of updating the seating in my shop truck, going form bench to bucket. Got these from a friend, they came out of a 39 Ford Coupe and are about 6 months old on the leather. FREE Score !!!. All thats missing is a factory
69-72 console. What you think ?? |

Re: Updated seating
Your '69 looks similar to the Holley shop truck. Even if it didn't, it looks "tasty"....and clean.
Your phone booth hot rod is makin' me drool. I'm jealous.

Re: Updated seating
Looks really good. I have a few questions about your truck. What are the mirrors off of.
Did they bolt on where the stock mirror was. I like the round mirrors and haven't figured out how to get a round mirror. Also noticed you have one piece side glass. Did you do it and how hard was it. Also where did you buy? Brand? Thanks |

Re: Updated seating
breezy,
the mirrors are from Summit Racing ( believe it or not ) they came with round mirrors and I have a set of stock mirrors ( stainless steel long arm style ) and just swapped the chrome plated mirrors with the stainless steel mirrors. I had to drill new holes for mounting but the doors are new aftermarket so they didnt have holes. I looked forever to find a mirror I liked, the 68-72 Nova mirror is very similar and also has a round head. The windows are from ONE PIECE PRODUCTS ( In Calif.), they work good, takes about 2 good days to install and tweek to work correctly ( for both doors ), If I had it all to do over I would have just left my vent windows as there was nothing wrong with them. It was done as an install in Truck Builder Magazine a couple of years ago. |
