Hello all from Murfreesboro TN

Post by Tunneldiver »

Just wanted to say Hello and introduce myself. Learned alot already just reading some of the post here. You guys really know your stuff. New to this, so my apologies if I post anything out of place. Just bought a unmolested '68 F250 w/ a 240i6. Wanting to it keep original except for a few upgrades, PB, AC, and maybe bucket seats. Any and all advice will be appreciated.

Welcome to the site!
As far as the seats go, these trucks originally used the same buckets as Mustangs of that era. Many have swapped ion bucket seats form various years, makes, and models so don't limit yourself to just Mustang seats.
You will need the brackets. There are four of them, two for each seat. If you know someone who can cut and bend heavy gauge steel, here is a cad drawing of them:

There is another option. I'll PM you.
