Ok I'm a idiot. I forgot to take any pictures of the seat re-done while it was still out of the truck. So these will have to do, cause I ain't taken it back out!

I like it with a splash of color!

Seat covers

I have always kinda enjoyed doing interior work. I have only done my own, and don't have any machines, so I have to do it all by hand. But that being said, it has turned out alright before.

Now the 95's seat is looking a little rough, and I figure it's time to do something about it.

So I pulled out the seat, and pulled off the parts store seat cover. Not pretty

Years ago I bought this blanket on one of my travels. This will be the new cover.

No more hole

There was a hole on the cowl where the previous owner had mounted a antenna. Looked like he had used the hammer & chisel method... Anyway while I'm waiting on parts to mount the rear end, I decided to fill the time by filling the hole.

Here is the offending hole

I cleaned up & cut out, the area. Then made a patch to fill up what I took out

Welded up and gone, and while it is not as good as something someone like "The Candyman" would do, its strong. And with a little bit of work it will be un-noticeable.

Paint, finally

While I still have, under the cab, and the front half, left to do.  I finally have something to show for my hard work. The back half of the frame is now covered in a coat of Rust-o-leum Hammer Finish Black. Although it looks more of a very dark gray to me.

Because of the size of my shop and the lighting conditions, I want to finish the back, then turn the truck around and start on the front. So I'll be working on getting the springs and rear end mounted next.

A Clean frame

I have scraped, brushed, sanded, ground, and thought I'd never get done. But, the frame from the cab back is finally clean and ready for a coat of paint.

New springs for the 58!

I haven't mentioned the 58 in a while, but work has been progressing. A little slow maybe, but progressing.

I now have new front and rear mono springs, and the front springs have reverse eyes. this will be good for a 3 to 31/2 drop.

Tats and Rats car show

Local show today, Tats and Rats. 1st one, not big but it was a good show.

This is my friend's truck, was white for years, but now sporting a new look with flames and red primer.

Another friend of mine brought out his Model A. Outstanding car!

I don't know the owners of these others but each one was on my favorite of the day list:

Sweet GMC

Super clean Chevy

And lastly, this 66 Caddy. I could see me with a change of clothes, a roll of hundreds, and a road trip to Vegas!
