My S10 and the upgrades ( Build thread)

Ok well i posted a week or so ago about my S10 and after messing with it for a couple of days, ive started to find things the PO either broke or did to it that just arent to my standards. Heres the link to the original post: http://www.67-72chevytrucks.com/vboa...d.php?t=383953
That being said the first upgrade Im going to do is to change the broken seats. Im no lightweight and i surely do not discriminate against those who are overweight but i swear the PO must have either been 800 lbs or had a pair of elephants driving this truck as the seat bottoms are all broken and the bar across the bottom of the seat cracks the cocix bone in the back when you hit a bump.
After searching Ebay and all, I came up with this junkyard that had a nice set of seats for my truck. They came out of a regular cab as opposed to an extended cab because they dont have the storage pocket on the back but i figure i can make something or get a pickup organizer back there. I hope they are direct bolt ins.
Seats $125 used seats in the truck and the ones that will go in as soon as it stops snowing and i can dig the truck out ( I apologize about the mess but when you have a three year old granddaughter in the house forget about keeping it clean)
The next adventure is going to be buying the plate from Ebay so that I can repair the underside of the armrest. I dont think there is a single of these trucks out there that as a good armrest in it. They all crack with the least pressure on the cover
here is the part: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ARMRE...item5ad41efffa
