Hey what did you have to give for the seat's ? even thou there ford seat's they look pretty good .Great Job on the truck Man keep up the Great work .

 

they were expensive, but when i have gone this far its hard to cheap out , just ordered all new weather striping too , the visa bill is not going to be pretty this month

 

johny, do you have a side veiw of the back seat to show leg room. I bought a set of 3rd gen power, heated, leathers for mine. How did you mount the rears. I've got some ideas, but have picked one yet. I'll hopefully have mine mounted up by the end of the month.

 

oh i have about 8 hours in to the rear seats , they were a lot of cutting/ plating because of the angle of the rear floor , i'll get some pics tommorow

 

I just found your thread & all I can say is WOW!! What a SWEET JOB!!

 

Thanks. I've got to get some more pics of mine up. The door jams and inner fenders are painted. I'll hopefully have the frame done by this weekend so I can get the cab back on. Then get everying back together and ready for paint.

 

What year truck were they from?

 

I sit and look at these pics before I go to bed so I have sweet dreams.

 

beautiful truck... inspiration for me and my friend as he has a crew cab stuffed away awaiting this treatment

 

That is gonna be a really nice interior, those seats look great! And comfy, too.

 

Thanks guys....
Here's some pics that were requested about the leg room and how I modified the mounts.

 

Thanks johny. Looks like yours were easier to mount then mine will be. The 3rd gen rear seats I'm useing mount at the very back of the seat, so I have to mount them on the hump at the back of the cab.

 

I looked at some 3dr gen seats and the rear seats were really short that's why I went for the ford seats.

 

That's kind of why I chose to go with them. That I I like the fact that when folded up the brackets are up and out of the way. That and I got the 3rd gen leather, power, heated for $225. I had originaly planned on going with two set of 98.5-02 seats with the built in seat belts but figured there wouldn't be much leg room in back.

 

My '85 crew looks exactly like the truck you started w/. A White sweet rust free western rig from AZ/OR. I am planning a '98 CTD/nv-4500 swap for it this winter Love the build up, great pictures....but the finished product is AWESOME.
