Folding foward seat bracket/arms. My fitrst pin striping and some paint and other small things. I starting the frame next week. I hope to have it as a ROLLER by the mid-June. Here are some pic. of the truck and the visit to Von Tinglers acouple a weeks ago. I'll be asking the tire question soon Sizes etc... here ya go.. later , BS [​IMG]

    Looks like your getting something done. I was thinking of doing the folding seat but decided to just leave it with the folding seat back for now. I see you have an inside mirror, been wondering what they looked like in these trucks.
    Keep on Truckin.

    Looks good, but please tell me that it is just my monitor that makes the firewall look PINK!?!

    But other than that it is way cool, and I am glad to see that you didn't sell it last year.

    I like the seat riser. In my 36 I made the same setup from angle iron and used two allen bolts to hold it at the back. I looked for a nice bench seat for several weeks but, in the end installed a set of buckets from an 87 Nissan. My Battery and electral was installed under the seat so to access it I take the two bolts out flip the seats up.

    I am making a glove box from card board and fibergl***.

    Wish my dash was as clean as yours!

    Looking forward to seen more pictures of the progress.
