Look at my new seat!
Check out my new seat guys. I just upgraded from a five gallon bucket. I was sitting a little high, and don't have a tilt column in yet. Athough I've grabbed gears on the old 3 speed on the tree many times while on the bucket.
NOTE: SEAT BELTS DON'T WORK WELL WITH 5 GALLON BUCKET SEATS. Let's see your seats!

Seems the question that always follows the new seat post is, "What did you get it out of and what mods did you do to make it fit?"
 So, what did you get it out of and how did you get it to fit

I think he got it out of a milk truck. They come stardard in most of them and they fit perfect in just about any year truck. There is no holes to drill, they are fully adjustable and tilt forward for easy access behind them, they have great under seat storage and are easy to clean and can be removed faster than any of those new suv rear seats. They are also avalible in many different colors and patterns to match the rest of your interior. They can cheap and easy to get sometimes they are just in a big pile beside of the dumpster at the local convenient store.

Yeah just turn your heater on floor vent the seat has vents built in so the heat will blow on your bottom.

The plastic ones have a little more give to them but the gvw is not as high as the steel ones.So if to much weight is applied they will crack and pinch your pooper like it has never been pinched before

You should put one under the hood, then you'd have a nice "crate" motor.

those are super rare. If you find the image of the Virgin Mary on the wood, you will be rich too.

If you throw a rag over the crate, it helps a little. But if you mount subs under the crate, make sure you don't use a rag, so you get the full bass effect. Yes in fact these a pretty rare option on 67-72 pickups. If anyone has a glove box decal with the option number please post!

That bench is the ultra rare F1R option. Didn't see the Virgin Mary but I could have sworn I saw Jack Elam's eyes in it.
