I am relocating my gas tank to under the bed, so I will have that area behind the seat available. I am also thinking of an amp back there, along with a mobile ham radio. The 23 channel CB will be where you can see it under the dash.
I have also moved the tank to the rear...my buddy that does upholstery already has some big ideas for behind the seat...
I'm thinking also of modifying the inner panel behind the seat, and the seat, to maybe create a couple of inches more leg room..we shall see
my rear cab panel should be here this week...
My plan is to keep some of the original look mixed with some modern upgrades and custom touches...
