Late years Half Cab Questions:

Does anyone know about the footman loop for the original half cab.....Did they have one if they had bucket seats?,.,Or was the right seat tracks different from the U15? Ford Man's build is to have a bench seat, but there seems to be a little interence with the threaded holes to attach the bulkhead to the floor. Some of the original holes worked and some we had to install threaded holes. It seems Ford could have done a little better job at making the attachment holes a little more uniform for the components.......BUT...I remember.....this was before CAD days... We're making it work though!!!:-[:-[

Having a lift must be nice! Keep up the good work!

Yep....would hate to try to do without one!! I have heard that "Nothing is hard if you have the right tool!"

 

[stupidboy]

Man you have that body looking nice, I love it.

No flames or foam?? You need something to make your new ride standout. I'll bet if you put RC and Moonpie logos on the doors this would really turn into a unique ride!

I cheaked the 72 half cab it does not have a footmans loop it has a hook that hooks to the seat bracket the seat will fold forward and and raise up and forward like the u15
