How far from borne tx Iv'e got some friends fron there coming out here in may. I think i can talk them in to bringing it to me ,if i buy it

[Blue68]

If it Boerne, Texas, that's near San Antonio. It's roughly 300 miles south of here. I'm in the DFW area.

The seat was done by an upholstery shop here in town. The material is vinyl around the edges and cloth seating area. It is all OEM material used on newer GM cars so it should last. I drove on it for a few years and it's been performing admirably as a sitting place in my garage for a few more.

[trukkers69]

Let me talk to them and see when exactly they are coming out this way. Maybe if i buy them a hotdog or something they will come up through there.

[Blue68]

Timing could be better. My in-laws live in Austin, but are in Washington until the end of June, otherwise that cuts about half the distance off.

Let me know what your friends think and we can work from there.

[trukkers69]

Well .........Talked to friends , theyre not coming out till around fourth of july. Let me see what i can come up with.
(note to self): get new friends

[Blue68]

Don't write them off just yet. Timing may be such that I could be in Austin sometime around the week of June 22. Maybe meet up with them somewhere and make the delivery. My wife will be in Minn., my daughter at church camp and my son and I will be needing something to do, and my daughter's camp is about half way to Austin...see where I'm heading.

If they are willing, we can get the ball rolling.

Later.

[trukkers69]

Let me throw this at ya. How far east would you be willing to go?

[trukkers69]

Here we go again.................I talked to some kinfolks in SanAntonio who said they would come up to Austin and pick it up for me. Then bring it out when they come. If you still have it in june.
Thanks,
Jeff

Jeff,
Here is a picture of the driver side back bracket. I wanted you to see it before commiting to something. It was broken when I got the truck and the upholstry shop welded in a washer to support it. You'll notice that the washer is about 3/8 inch too high. It never bothered my, I put a nut on the other side to make it level.

I'll still be headed to Austin June 22 if you are interested.

[trukkers69]

Yeah, that will be allright, I'll just be glad to get rid of the seats that are in it. I talked to my cousin and they will be coming out on fourth ,also said they would come up to austin and pick it up for me. Let me know details so i can set up delivery.

[Blue68]

Jeff,
Have you been getting my PM's?

[19mike69]

let me know if the other guy doesnt want it,i might be able to buy it for the right price....will it fit a 69?

[Blue68]

19mike69, I'm supposed meet up with some of his family in Austin on Sunday to make the exchange, but I haven't heard from him since earlier in the week about when the board was having trouble.

You are about 40 minutes north of here aren't you? Yes, it should fit a '69. Best of my knowledge, the seat brackets were all the same 67-72.

[trukkers69]

Sorry about the delay been having computer probs. Italked to cousin and they have got something going on then. I've been trying to make other arrangements but cant seem to get them together. I hate to miss out on them ,but if 19mike69 wants them sell them if not i'll try to get them somehow.

[Blue68]

Mike,
I tried to PM you but your mailbox is full. I'll make you the same deal on the truck, $200.

Let me know.

Todd.

[19mike69]

[Blue68]
