A few parts needed..................

Hi all,

Well it's finally warmed up so I've been tearing into the '78 250. Got the interior gutted. Going to put in new carpet, weatherstrip etc.

Looking for a bench seat or foam for the seat. The foam cushion in mine is beyond any help. I planned on recovering it but the foam is shot and and NPD wants over $200 for a piece of foam. I hear that it's about a wash taking it to an upholstery shop vs. buying the foam from NPD and covering it myself. What are your thoughts???

Also looking for a rear bumper and the mounting brackets. Truck currently has an Ag bumper/reciever that I put on Craigslist. Nice receiver but I don't really have a need for it. Don't need a new looking bumper but don't want something that's beat up and bent. Plan on doing a flatbed down the road so I just need something to get me by for a while.

Any leads/ideas on the seat and bumper/brackets is much appreciated.

I have 2 78's in the pasture. I can take a look at the rear bumpers to see what kind of shape they are in, but I would definately have the brackets. Actually, the one might have a pretty good seat too??!! I'm located 20 mins NW of Wahoo. I'll check them out tonight....
