Looks great Ozark, love the gun rack, reminds me of childhood when the farm utes around the district had gun racks in the window and every ute had a rifle or shotgun behind the seats.

Nowadays, well we'd be locked up for inciting panic and unrestrained firearms if we did that. If I want to transport my rifle it has to be hidden in its bag and the ammo kept in a separate locked box, glovebox if it's got a good lock.

Again - great looking ute, well done.

Gary..If you remember the Bronco buckets in my truck..the passenger track is the "tilt" that you describe. If I remember correctly..I had to drill the outside holes for the drivers seat..and 2 holes for the passenger side. I didn't think it was that important for the passenger to adjust the seat..I had to shim both tracks to get a level track..and I used Corvette wheel spacers and a couple washers. You can see the results...The seats sit a bit closer to the dash..at least the low back ones do. I'm not a fan of the seats sticking up in the window....BRAD..It's a shame what has happened to your beautiful country. I seriously thought about moving there back in the 70s. A friend of mine did move there..and is still there..
