Not a great shot but to give you an idea of what it should look like from the factory


The seat below is a factory deluxe seat from 1962. About a hundred thousand miles on this one, and it's in close to perfect shape. I can't explain how it lasted so well, but I can tell you when I got the truck in about 1998, it was completely flawless. I've been stupid and left the windows down in the rain, and basically just used it like the work truck it is, hence the light staining on the left side.
