Seat looks great Wally. You’ve achieved an original look as well as the customisers favourite, the old tuck and roll and leather for some real class. You’ve certainly come a way from the quick tidy up you started out with.
Cheers

Go the utes Wally
Really love what you are doing and great seat design I like the tuck and roll seat inserts will look great in the cab mate.

Thanks Guys - appreciate the feedback
It's developed into a much more expensive job than first planned but I'm really excited about what will come out the other end when finished
Fuel tank arrives from Marty Dean this week as well so will give a report on that for you as well as tanks are a common replacement - often buggered

Goes well with the neutral colours like cream and grey. You’ll need whitewalls

you know what - I didn't even take pics of the tank before I handed it over to back to life - it looked bloody awesome though - I'll buz around later and see if I can sneak a few.

Here you go - looks pretty Smick - the top has a bit of a bow to it which I hadn't expected - would of been better with a bit of a crimp in it to stabilise I guess

Looking Wheelie good :yeahhh:
