Mike, they were in a guy's attic! Somebody had stolen the AC at one of his rent houses and I replaced it and went to his house to get a check and we got to talking about his C30 flat bed. I showed him pics of mine. Then he dropped this bomb on me and he said he had brand new restored black houndstooth buckets and restored tach cluster up in the attic. By the time it was over, I knocked a few hundred dollars off his bill and have to go fix a small ductwork issue at another rent house (3 hours labor). Win Win. Major score for the good guys. =) It's really motivated me to get this frame rolling again so I can get closer to seeing these beautiful seats in my cab. Exactly what I needed.
Also decided to sell my other baby, my GSXR, to carry this project through fall and winter.
