See, I look at projects like yours, and wish I had room to do what You have, and thats totally blow it apart. I had to do it the hard way, take off a peice, and refurb it, then put it back on. Im glad that my project inspires some of ya'll to work on your own projects. Beleive me, i can relate to the $$ Issue!

I really wish the gallery setup on FTE was easier to use, and setup a bit differently. I only have about 10% of the photos I have taken actually uploaded here, and I cant link to where I do have em uploaded because its a competing site..

Thanks. Nothing special about the seat. It's original from the factory.

Yes, that's true...(it has 200k+ to boot!) also have another seat in red as good as that one.

I would clear coat your dash with something UV resistant to protect that signature.



Here is mine, before I blew the truck up and sentenced it to death.

The super expensive engine I built for it let loose for the 4th time, I got tired of fixing it, got tired of dumping money into it, and prior to the 4th time the motor dying, I got my 4 door Bronco going. I parked it till I had mustered up motivation to re-do the engine, and finish the ZF swap, but that was 4 years ago.

shooer, that's really nice. I just picked up a metallic brown '73 with an interior that's completely thrashed - this looks like just the scheme for it. Hope you don't mind a little plagiarism!

It wasn't a kit. I took parts from a 1980 Truck & a 1989 Ford Van. Pieced it together. Yes they work very good. It's nice to be able to unlock the door and roll down the passanger side window while my seat belt is still fasented.
