When I refurbish, preserve, restore an old truck, one of the more important things to me is to have original seats. I have restored suburbans and panels. Those are as tough to find as a 46 pickup seat. I go to the ends of the earth to find seats.
NOTHING ruins the look and feel of an old truck than to look inside and see some funky bucket, van, Cadillac or hipping seat inside.
The older the truck, the worse it looks. Very disturbing and sad. If I put a V8 in it, upgrade brakes and steering..............I still have an original seat. The east has way more seats than the midwest or west.
Just my too sense.
