Yea, I figured the moose thing you'd relate to, being in the High Country & all. I'm looking forward to this.
I know that it just may be me, being an upholstery guy, but those covers really gotta go! Your steering wheel & your seats are the most intimate connection to your vehicle. It's through these that your baby 'talks' to you.

black with orange stitching, and orange seam strip :D

sewlow.....you sir may be getting some seat covers from me in the mail. Can you replicate original pattern seat covers? I can send the complete bottom cushion with cover and seat back cushion with cover so you know what shape it needs to be. It's the only thing left on my 1970 opel gt restoration. Also restoring my 74 260z and might call on ya for those seats too, and maybe re-skinning the door panels on the car. Also might getcha to recover my truck seats front and back in grey leather with the skirts like the stock seats that're in it, just in leather version. If ya can get new cushions, I'll get those also for my truck. lol....i just jacked Josh's thread >.<

Alright, I have found some seats!, all by chance too!, talked to my buddy who works at autowreckers, said he found a set of grey buckets in the shed beside his house (He lives on the autowreckers property) while cleaning it out to store his Harley!

The Clearance lights are new from 1976, His grandma gave him the OBS, and those were lights that were suppose to go on her 1976 Ford, but my buddies dad never put them on, so he figures it was time they made it onto her truck.

No way in hell im painting wipers orange. :lol:
