out of a 91 f-150 i got for $40, i plan on recovering it in black vinyl, and getting black door panels. Also installed a almost perfect black dash to repace my cracked ugly red one.

I like that style seat. That is the kind of style I will looking at. I am suppose to have a guy giving me a mid 90's seat similar to that in leather. I hope it works out. I like free.

That seat looks great! When do you plan to re-cover it? I think black vinyl with some velour (so you don't burn your legs) would look really classic. Be sure to put up pix when you get it covered!

I'd like to do something similar with mine. I plan to restore my truck to the original "frost turquoise" color, so I'd like to get a seat like that and recover it in black with some turqouise stitching or beading, and maybe get the Camper Special emblem embroidered into it.

The dash pad looks nice, too... where did you get it?

I like that seat! That's the style I want to install in my truck, the one where the center section folds down and has cup holders. (Gotta have cup holders!)

I like the seat. Looks exactley like mine. Got mine from a 89 f150 for $20. Not the best looking but I like cloth.

looks comfy, better than vinyl on your butt crack at 20 degress

i wouldn't put vinal on it unless you tend to get your but and back all greasy like me. I like that color, in your truck, makes it look more origional. Plusd with vinal you slide around allot. I had to put aseat cover over mine. I felt like someone waxed the seat.

the 77 seat tracks will fit right in your 72 without changing the brackets again.
