47-55.1 A little progress on the 50 - finally

[nvrdone]

as far as the seat, removing the cab tank does not provide any additional leg room. the seat hits on the inner cab panel behind the seat. that's the limiting factor. there are many different seats that guys on this forum use so do a search. ive got a 3rd row seat out of an astro van in my '49 and I like the way it sits. I did cut the mounts and lower it about 1". im 6'3 / 240#. I did shorten the brake pedal and that is a good improvement. future plans are to change the steering box and use a tilt column out of a jeep Cherokee.
