New seat

Thought I would post couple pictures of my new seat. It came out of a 91 F150. I had it recovered and the ford embroidery in the center to match my truck color. Pictures not great it had already gotten dark before taking them. Now I just have to get the door panels and headliner finished.

Very nice! Looks like vinyl with cloth in the middle of the seats?
One of the best upgrades we can do to our truck IMO is to get rid of the old / hard seat.

Yes it vinyl and cloth. The ford stitching looks 100 times better in person.For some reason it does not look solid around the oval in the pictures,and yes you said a mouthful when you say its one of the best upgrades. Since I swapped to power steering and automatic transmission,and the seat I think it is just as comfortable to drive as my new truck. Hope to have air by the summer then I will be putting some miles on it

Thanks basketcase for the compliments.

Seat looks nice and comfortable. Got a idea for a cupholder, 93s came with a cupholder. Pull it up to take it off the seat and theres 2 pins that the cupholder connects to. Might not be to hard to adapt to yours.

Yes, Mine was stuck on pretty good the first time i pulled it off. But theres nothing else holding it on if it acts like it don't want to come off.

looks awesome! I am looking to do the same thing...how much did it cost you in total? I want to change that big old ugly steering wheel as well...which one did you choose?

Thanks for compliments. I have total of $400 in seat. I paid $100 for seat and $300 to have it covered. I have a 1974 steering column with a 14" Grant GT steering wheel.
