Re: 58 Apache short bed rebuild

The original dash had been butchered as had the firewall, so when the new dash was fitted there was no support for the steering column. To make up for that i made a triangulated bracket that i welded to the fire wall and has the mounting holes for the column. I also settled on the 2nd row seats from a range rover sport for seating. Again options for full bench seats here in the uk are limited. I settled on these as I like the 60/40 split for the seat to fold and the fact it has the shoulder seat belt built in for the middle seat. I'm having them modified slightly by the upholsterer to better suit the cab and i'll post pictures once they are done.
