Seat frames in today, moved the front seat back for more leg room, and got the seat brackets in place for welding
Rear seat fitted as well, and worked out the place for the diesel heater fuel tank

It’s a rare OG Big Boots headlight dipper
One of only 6 known RHD versions, 1961 model only
Very lucky to own one, perfect for the Dual Cab
