It would actually be great marketing for the dealership... would probably get a spot on CNN.
Yeah, it's be very slick indeed. Imagine modern dealerships having a resto-mod shop, or a restoration shop- heck, even just a few of their brand's classic rigs on site! That would be sweet, but not cost effective.
I am trying to make the 65 family friendly, so the rear seat area has to get seat belts. The first step is to raise the seat up over the well it's meant to rest in when I use. In other words, the lid has to close, and the seat has to open on top of it.
The Amber Poly seat from the 67:
The venerated lid that remains open when the seat is in use:
In-between sanding 62Thriftside's inner fender, block sanding the panel, I found time to swap out the rear seat mounting brackets. The 65's are the shorter, Amber Poly. The 77 Cherokee Widetrack's are green and black (primer and flat enamel). Using the taller, thicker brackets will let me sit the seat on top of the lid- then I can put seat belts in safely. It did not come with rear seat belts.
The brackets installed, using the 65's bolts/screws:
Seat in use and lid down:
Seat belt instal will come later.
