I'm glad you found something I've posted to incorporate in you build. Your build is looking nice.

Yeah the wife is my biggest supporter and I built the truck for us to cruise the Cali streets in so she was having blast riding in it for the first time ever. Well that goes for the both of us.lol

If you were talking about my seat. I cut down the mounts myself (because of the big back window), but I had another inch cut out the back and had new foam and covered for 850.

Re: 1956 3100 build

hey bam was referring to your seat yes looks really nice. is it leather? i had a really good local upholster quote me $600 but i think it was just cloth.i am kinda torn on which seats to run.I had the bench in before so i will leave those mounting holes in floor.. i got box wood cut to length today:

upon laying wood in to check things found out some holes in aftermarket headboard for wood are off or not there. good to find out now then drilling holes in freshly painted parts.
