3/4t GMC with buckets & tach...seems like a waste! See solution!

Saw this 71 GMC 3/4T for sale: buckets, console, tach, posi, & cab lights. Seemed like a real waste of good buckets & console & tach...so, here's how I handled it.
New correct covered bench and plain dash makes a nice clean fresh interior AND I now have a nice set of buckets, console & tach dash for our toys.
Since it was a GMC and 3/4T it is probably worth more with the changes and the out take parts will pay for the new stuff and have $$$ left over.
That should work!
What do you think?

I am working on my pics. My camera's vga setting (480x640) is usually slightly too big to post here and I have to go back and resize...arghhh!
