They're the 40/20/40 bucket style seats, and he's doing them in leather (something that Ford never offered out of the factory) but fairly close to replicating the factory cut/panel look that the cloth had. I'll see if I have a picture to explain it. Not getting crazy with this one, anyhow. The Bull gets new buckets this winter with more elaborate work done to them.
The big advantage, especially in the OBS, will be ease of cleaning. I thought about having them re-done in cloth to stay true to factory, but with as much as I'm in and out of it, it'll be nice to have an easier surface to clean. Eventually, I'm going to get a second row of 40/20/40 for the rear as well (again, not something offered from the factory to my knowledge), and I'll have them done the exact same way.

Morning folks, happy Thursday.
Jim, I'm not sure if it's because all of my trucks have leather (or the factory version thereof, because we know it's not REALLY leather in most cases...lol) or what, but I don't find the cloth that much more comfortable that I would prefer putting cloth seats back in the truck. And with as much dirt as I tracked in and out of it this year being on job sites with it like I have been, the ease of cleaning was much more appealing.
Speaking of, I need to steam clean the daylights out of my carpeting before winter...ugh.

Hi Bill. Yeah, it was a good time. Jason Peter, former defensive linemen from the national championship teams in the 90's was there. This guy has no edit function, and tells it like it is. And, he's a madman. It was entertaining as hell!
