Thanks guys! Finished up the welding today. Fixed the passenger door corner primed and sealed the seams. Then welded up a little exhaust leak.

The other day I was able to mess around with the truck. I got the floor undercoated, threw down a pad that came with and then started getting the rubber in the floor. It was pretty thick rubber( 3/8) so I had to use multiple pieces. Made it very quiet tho



Then got the seat and belts in and....

took her for a spin. Then another spin haha. Lots of stuff to still do but it drives once again. Still need to touch up a bunch of paint. Get my seat recovered( or find a new one) get a new windshield on and on. I also clear caulked all the holes in the firewall that wires go through( no more drips on the floor when it rains hard).

I was doing some craigslisting and found exactly what I needed 120 bucks for both!


They came out of a crew cab that a guy wanted new seats for. They are near perfect condition and look freshly upholstered. The front seat doesn't fold down but the back seat is a bit better condition( just need to swap the tracks underneath them) might try to sell one as well if someone is close by. Can't wait to get the seat in!

Great score! If you can't sell it, BAM...shop couch!

edit/P.S.- I like that pouch on the front of that seat.

I was able to put my new seat in today before work. I ended up pulling the tracks off my red seat and put them on the rear seat I got.


Much better.

Thanks guys! I like the pockets on the front of my new seat, prefect for a concealed. Got the truck out the other day and went to the folks farm. It's running hot. Figured I'd take a few pics of it tho.

Next to my dad's 74 highboy

Very nice! Longbox highboys look great to start with, but you've turned this into a real gem!

MAN just read from the beginning to here. Wow what a nice highboy She looks great. If you can fix them door jambs and front corners an old gummy radiator is nothing. Stand proud you have built a real gem of a highboy there.
