Hello, I am putting together a 46 Willys pickup on a S-10 Blazer frame. I am powering it with a 4.3 Vortec V6, running a carb and HEI distributor. 700R transmission running a 2WD rear diff. I will put some pics up later. So far its running and driving like a Chevy! But looks cool like a Willys!

Thanx for the comments! Here are some pics of what it looks like today, approx 10 months later. I am pretty much finished except for a a continuing challenge to do cool things.

Love it. Wish I had the kind of knowledge to do what you did. Where did you get the bench seat or is that the original?

I can only get on here every couple days. But it's a seat out of an older Datsun pickup, one of the smaller ones. It works darn good. A friend of mine does seat work, it's black split leather. Nice. Sometimes friends are good to have around, not perfect, but nice. thanx for looking

Would it be possible for you to take some photos of how you mounted the bench seat and post? I am always looking for ideas.
