gchemist · 03-02-2003, 08:55 PM

Watch for dry grass. I almost started a fire once for parking in a lot with tall grass!!!
Nice pictures.

*1FaastC10* · 03-02-2003, 09:36 PM

Ryan, looking good. thanks for the pics, they'll be added to my collection, and the garage wall. cant wait til my truck is as low as yours!

79BIG10 · 03-03-2003, 03:56 AM

Looks great Ryan. Next time your back in town let me know. I want to see the shifter in person.

Low87 · 03-03-2003, 12:05 PM

Looks good!

Ric83 · 03-03-2003, 01:13 PM

Great job Ryan. Your truck keeps looking better and better. Very nice!!

bagged81 · 03-03-2003, 02:10 PM

Ah, come on now, I dont see any hay in the back of that thing. Just looking nice among hay bales. :p I like your style. That is how mine looked back when I was runnin' rallies.

Before I got my truck painted and bags put on I had to tow our enclosed cab International tractor (6700lbs) home from the shop. At the time, I had the 3.5" x 18" chrome tips coming out under the rollpan and they would hit the asphalt every once and awhile. I felt so bad for my truck, but it was a trooper and did what had to be done with no complaints.

BTW, what mirrors and seats you got there?

low 84 · 03-03-2003, 02:37 PM

thanks for the encouragement guys

the seats are ones i got for free from an fsc board member. they are out of an older integra i think. the mirrors resemble the small factory ones they used on our trucks but they are a little smaller, they are just ones i bought at autozone for like 10 bucks a piece until i can get the holes filled from the dumbo ear mirrors. then i think i'm gonna mount just one peep mirror from the top of the drivers door.

cole - what do you want more pics of, the seats? or something else? i'm sure i've got some

If you and Rob are still coming in town this weekend I can weld up the mirror holes for you. I just did Bonzi and the wifes stake pockets and thier gates this past weekend. I'm gonna do my mirror holes this coming weekend and put on the cowl hood. Have to put in a new alt this week to get the pos running.

I'm really wanting to see more pics ofthe seats. I'm in the process of trying to redo my interior and I am still deciding on what kind of seats I want. I already have the upolstry shop picked out and what is going to be done far as recovering them. Its just hard to imagine what they will look like in our type of trucks. I appreciate the help.

low 84 · 03-04-2003, 12:39 AM

cole here are some more pics of the seats

to mount them i had to redrill the floor board for all four holes and make a spacer for the inside front mount of both seats becasur the floor board drops down in that area.

Cole's 87 · 03-04-2003, 07:50 PM

Ryan Those are some sweet looking seats they are pretty close to what i'm looking at. They are out of a Grand Am GT. I'm just trying to find the right look Tell me what do you think.

*1FaastC10* · 03-04-2003, 08:16 PM

cole, those seats look great. and their comfortable too, my sister has them in her grand am.
