That seat looks great! Love the color choice and material.

EXCELLENT CHOICE on the seat, too. Those bench seats with the flip-out armrest and no headrests are very difficult to find, but to me, they are the best seat seat you can use. I have one in the '55 I am building, and I am desperately trying to find one for my '64. I believe that they only built them in '88 and '89, and only in the fully loaded standard cabs. That alone makes them very difficult to find.

Got another one laying around?

Thanks, I love these seats, I have one in my 57, my 70 and just found one for my kids truck. The one's I found were out of a 94 chevy or GMC.

Took ot for a ride around the block, pipes aren't as loud as I thought. Once I get going they seem to mellow out, But they're loud at take off. lol. I need to get the trans adjusted and the alignment done. That'll be Monday, then I'm on the road! Finally....

That seat is perfect.

dbomb53 · 08-09-2012, 01:00 PM

Dropped off my truck at the transmission shop to have the TV cable adjusted, found out my clutches for second gear are toasted. There's another bracket that is needed that connects to a Holley carb, it allows the cable to be pulled at the correct angle. I'll take a picture and post it today. Needless to say, the trans needs to come out again and be torn apart.

got my truck back last Friday from the transmission shop....just wanted to wait to post before I had another mishap. Trans is running killer..cruizes at about 75mph. Once I figure out how to video tape it. I'll post up. Been trying to drive it every day to work out the bugs. He's a shot in my work parking lot. Not layed all the way out, I just trimmed my hood hinges today and re-inforced with 1/2" square tubing.....leveled out the body lines too..

Looks great. Glad you got the lines fixed. I am not even driving mine. Its going to the muffler shop on a trailer, then to the trans shop to adjust the tv cable. Then its driving time.
