Re: 1957 chevy family truck

Where did you get the cut down seat? Did you cut one down or is it out of something else? Mine sits about 6 inches above the window and don't look right.

Re: 1957 chevy family truck

I think it looks great as-is and the dark kick panels tie in with the carpet. I wouldn't change a thing!
