Hey guys, just stumbled onto this. My question is - look at the seat base. It looks like a piece of sheet metal made to cover the seat support and I think it looks pretty good. Do you guys know if this is a ford part from another era? Or is this a custom piece to go with what looks like an updated seat? Anyone recognize what that seat is from? Just curious - thanks!
Looks like a pretty nice little truck, really like the two-tone paint.

Chevy / Dodge seat with custom bent aluminum mounts. Check out how the seatbelts come through the seat base, who makes seats like that?

Re: Gas Monkey Bump on ebay
From what I can see of the paint showing through on my truck, plus the interior, my truck was originally that exact paint scheme. I may just repaint it into those colors.
