Have a Seat

Now that I have finished my terrible vendor blogging I want to get back to the truck. I mounted these guys up yesterday. To give lumbar support I added risers to the front on the seat track. As you can see (or can’t) the seat track is hidden. I mounted them far enough back so it gave me room enough to move the seat but kept the track it rolls on hidden under the seat. They worked out well and have integrated seat belts so I don’t have to drill nasty holes in my cab interior.

Mirrors

So I picked up this amazing spotlight that is going on the truck…

But also… Conrad Lanoue is just finishing up his fantastic stainless steel reproduction of my original mirror. It is coming out great (some pics below). It’ll look really wierd… but I am putting both the spotlight and mirror on the truck. The spotlight might look really weird and maybe out of place but I don’t care.

 

Eventually they will look like the pics below (but stainless). I am getting a mirror for the driver and passenger side (which currently does not have one stock).

Just finished up my vent windows. They came out nice with the black powder coating and the new green tint windows. These were tough to complete if you caught a glance of what I had to start with.
