Re: Looking for info/owners of special edition trucks

I have 2 Gentleman Jim trucks. One is a family truck that's been passed down since it was a year old and my grandfather got a hold of it, and the other I just picked up from down in New Mexico for the right price of $800. Rebuilt the old quadra-jet and put a new distributor on it and it runs like a top. It's been sliced-and-diced apart though by previous owners, since the floor mats, bucket seats, tilt column, am/fm 8-track and hood are all missing or not original, and a lot of the interior was cut up for a "modern" sound system, which I will have to fix. I have replacement floor mats for it, and a new-ish tilt column on the way for it, but I'm always on the lookout for those other specific parts. Those darned bucket seats are nearly impossible to find since they have a special rectangular metal piece in the middle of the upper back.
