mine is in work, to be finished this weekend, if I can get to welder.

 

here is another try to make it work

 

Here are a few pics of my interior. I am shopping for a new seat but the Mossy Oak goes pretty good with the olive drab door panels and dash pad.

hey man there is so many seats that will work!!!!!!!!!!! Go to a junk yard and ask to look at all 1973-1995 f series trucks. I am sure U can find one that will work! I have a 1993 seat that is MONEY as in $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. It is so comfortable and looks good too.

 

Thanks for the compliment on my interior. Yes, I did get new door panels. The panels in the second pic are the ones currently on the truck. I was lucky enough to find those Ranger XLT style door panels in excellent condition at a local salvage yard for $20!

 

Bone stock '79 Custom line interior.

 

That's a really nice seat ya go there.


And JohnT, those ranger xlt panels are a steal for $20...Nice find.

Still a long way to go, but making progress anyway.

















I tried to put in a AM/FM radio from a Old mercury/Ford car in there and It just didn't fit right. Than I tried to put in a CD player and the dang thing would hit my AC/Heater ducting and sit out to far to fit right, than I found a truck AM/FM radio out of a 79 in a junkyard, but tested it and It didn't work. So, instead of messing around more and more, I just bought this one. I didn't have to modify anything.

 

Some great Interiors Ya'll! Patrick - good work in progress - what else you gonna do to it?

 

For the interior, I am waiting on my black carpet to get here, should be here next week. And I'm still trying to decide on a seat. I have a bench seat that I could recover which would be the cheapest route. I know where I can get a decent 96 truck seat for about $250, or I can get a new truck seat for about $600. So, still trying to decide. Other than that, just some little things to do such as door weather stripping and scuff plates. Door Panels will be black also. Hopefully, by early spring, I will have the interior complete, so I can get ready for the motor.

 

Bucks77ford- your interior looks great so far! I really like your tape deck. Where did you get it?

 

I did edit my above post after I posted, but It's actually just an AM/FM radio from custom Auto Sound. I didn't want a tape deck since I would never use it. I plan on just using my IPOD. Radio was kinda spendy though.

 

Patrick, thats some awesome progress ya have made on that Resto. Two thumbs up from me!

 

Thanks for the compliements. Looking at trucks like yours, Scott, and others keep me motivated on my project. Too bad I just didn't have a big wad of cash lying around to just finish it. . But, that's the way these projects go, very expensive in order to do it right.
