Although I have not had anytime to work on my truck I am in the midst of moving her back to my house and all my good stuff. Tomorrow I should have my bench seat I have had Grumpy working on and will post pics of it as soon as it is in my presence

please do good to hear from you Larry

**nlped** · 04-17-2018, 10:10 PM

Sorry I did t respond earlier, but I’m ready to come on and turn some wrenches.

**GR8-68** · 04-19-2018, 11:44 AM

So Grumpy old man dropped off my benchseat yesterday, I have to say I am totally in awe of the craftsmanship he put into my interior. He went above and beyond my expectations. Yes this was the factory bench seat, integrated headrest and a flip down console with cup holders on the bottom.

Ramjet51 · 04-19-2018, 12:57 PM

Very, very nice, looks really comfortable.....

67ChevyRedneck · 04-19-2018, 02:20 PM

Nice! Did you have anything else done? Like matching headliner/door panels, etc?

flashed · 04-19-2018, 02:27 PM

Looks very nice .

**hewittca** · 04-19-2018, 03:44 PM

Damn, that is nice! I like the cup holder idea. My kids are always bringing drinks in the truck and then they want me to hold them!

Yes, visors, dash pad, door panels and armrests are all covered in canvas also

Yes I love the drink holder he did that on his own and did a wonderful job hiding them.

**Grumpy old man** · 04-19-2018, 07:51 PM

Working that canvas was TOUGH , Mounting the hidden cup holders down low helps prevent spills all over your interior ,There's a 12 volt outlet inside the consol to charge your cell phone and since it's a flip forward seat some mesh pockets on the back help with some storage space . I'm glad your happy with it .

**zicc1835** · 04-19-2018, 08:36 PM

super nice Grumpy.... from another not so Grumpy old man ,, I bet your work may give Larry some new motivation

rusty76 · 04-19-2018, 09:12 PM

That is one nice seat. Now let’s get this truck done.

Ramjet51 · 07-05-2018, 06:35 PM

It is sitting in the warehouse still

Going through negotiations with the divorce right now to see if I have A place to live or if I have to sell out and buy a new place. Just way to much going on to think about the 68

cknfrmr · 07-23-2018, 05:30 PM

Best of luck with that. With all your extra parts n stuff I think you should be able sell them off n keep the 68 and the house.

rusty76 · 07-24-2018, 07:26 PM

Whatever we can do dude. Make you laugh we can definitely do that. Take care and best wishes.

**GR8-68** · 08-17-2018, 12:13 AM

Contemplating the sale of the ole 68

Divorce sucks !!!

cknfrmr · 08-17-2018, 12:49 PM

DANG. THAT IS NOT GOOD DUDE! Really hate to hear that. Let me know if I can do nething to make things easier or help out.

**hewittca** · 08-17-2018, 02:24 PM

Man that's a bummer. I was looking forward to seeing the finished product, but I definitely understand how life can change your plans. I have different reasons, but am also contemplating selling mine.

flashed · 08-17-2018, 02:49 PM

Hate to hear this but understand life happens.
