The stock pedestal and rail mounts are being used. The cushion and back were reupholstered. I noticed that the clearance between the top of my head and the cab top is only about 4 inches, which is much less than in my '37. Also, with the seat adjusted as far back as it will go my legs don't have as much clearance as I would expect for someone of average height. Is this a typical experience for these model trucks? | | | | | Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 7,441 Bolter | | Bolter Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 7,441 | Yup, people were smaller back then. I have the same leg room issue in the '62 C-10 but then I'm 6'1".

I did find out the dimensions I have for clearances match another one of these that was recently restored. | | |
