Thanks Greg, I just wish it would go faster!!LOL

 

Great work Pat!!!! Making great progress!

 

Got a little done yesterday. Ground the weld down on the front dash section, and welded a few pinholes shut. Sprayed it with some puff can primer to keep it from rusting. I'll be blasting the entire dash, then shooting it with epoxy, once I'm done with the mockup.

 

Went down to the U-pull it yard today, and after an hour of wandering around, found a seat for the truck. Removed the new brackets (I think the truck was an 89), drilled out the threaded holes, where the bolts from the factory brackets went, then slipped on the 67's brackets. Fits like a glove! I'll have the seat recovered and refoamed when I get to doing the interior.

 

Looks good Pat....

 

Looks great Pat! I didn't realize newer seats would fit in the pre-1973 cabs.

 

That does look nice in there.

 

Thanks guys! Yeah, you can pretty much put any seat up to a 96 in them. I really wanted a 60/40 split bench, like my 97 have, but you'd have to do a ton of changes to it, and this is almost as good.

 

Pretty cool Pat, looks good and a great score.

 

Pat; its good to see you are back after it! Enjoying the warmer weather.

 

That looks like a great upgrade Pat, what type of upholstery work you plan to have done?

 

Thanks guys! I'd like to do the seat in leather, and also have door panels made for it. I know you can buy a kit, that covers around the rear windows, that can be covered, and a custom headliner that can also be covered.

 

Nice job Pat, Looks great!

 

BTW, I'm going to shamelessly copy Gavins tank install in this thread

He does some incredible work!

 

Not a shameful act Pat, that's what these sites are for, to get ideas and share. I used a 73 Blazer tank in the panel and going with a 78 Bronco in this pickup. That plastic tank will last forever.
