I took out the old seat today, and test fitted what is a stock 1948 f1 seat I just purchased. It fits great and gives a nice ride height(which sort of makes sense being it's stock), but I can't figure out if it slides back and forth. There is a lever shown in one of the photos below but I can't get it to slide either way. I'll try again once I bolt it in place.
Nasty day out threating to rain any moment!. So, after seat swap I installed my new cheap stereo setup in the garage. The irony is this Harmon Karmon reciever cost me 8 bucks at a thrift shop and came with the original owners manual, the tape deck came off of ebay for less than 50 bucks and the cd player was free.When this system came out I could pay three months rent for the reciever and tape deck alone! A/C D/C was a good test choice. I'm pretty happy with it, and adds some ambiance to garage work!
Here's the seat that was in the truck when I bought it:


And here is the new stock seat in place(note the shifter will have to be raised!) And another photo of the seat from the bottom
As well as the shop stereo setup!
