Parts needed

Hi guys
I am mainly on diesel forum as this sumer as a main focus on the trip through USA I purchased 1986 F250 extended cab 6.9 diesel which I want to send home to Europe. I am kind of in need of some parts that are common throught the whole family of 7th gen pickups. I would need speedometer in km, not miles, I believe those are only in Canada. The tach is specific to diesel, so I search that in diesel section. I would like to get a set of captain chairs in color matching the rest of tan interior which I know will be extremely hard. Set of OEM alu wheels would be also nice. My truck is now located in Arizona, Prescott. I would appreciate any help, as parts are extremely rare in Europe and once it gets shipped I need all the parts to ship with it. I already did the zf5 swap while in the states last summer.

Thanks for any help.

Jan,

IIRC the standard US-based speedometer lists MPH in big numbers but has a km/h scale in smaller numbers adjacent to the larger numbers... would that be sufficient?

I am thinking the f250/350 that year did not have a aluminum wheel as a option did they? They did in later years though, and they can be fit to the older pickups.
