Cup holders

[Jesus Freak]

Poor @Nero

We are wreaking havoc on his sensible threads.

Nero had asked me about the factory cupholders in my 86, pics attached. Please excuse the messy interior, which isn’t really put together since I’m working on the truck

That can't be a 86 seat. IDK, it might be right, but I'm skeptical.

@KansasIDI i appreciate the photos. I may swap the seats at some point again to that style. Gotta find them in red first.

I'm pretty sure that you're right. Thar looks like a OBS style console to me.

I didn’t believe it either, but sure ‘nuff, they ARE factory. Power lumbar and everything.

The OBS power lumbar switch is round, mine is square. Has it on passenger side too. Both work

That switch is what threw me off.

anything about a receiver hitch

I gotta watch it with you guys...you gotta long memory...I was shaking my head for a moment and goin'...'Whaaaat...???'

HM!! You just gave me an Idea...

I need a cupholder with a flip lid in the back of the truck...

That sideways receiver hitch could work with that nicely...

Now gotta scrounge up some raw material for that....

Metal run next weekend...we'll see what we got to work with...

The Girl and I are getting a workout....raking gravel across a 30' x 40' area that will be our basement floor...4" thick of gravel...

Thank The Lord for that skid steer...otherwise it woulda' been wheelbarrow loads...

wide-bottomed ... mobile cup holder

Is this what makes the rockin' world go round?
She could not only hold your cup, she could pour you another from the thermos.

No. Where'd you get that idea?

 

[Nero]

@hacked89 obviously just listens to music that's stuck in his head.

I've noticed that too....... cupholders.

ford engineers kept putting AM/FM radios in the switch panel location

That is one nice-looking interior...

I can't have anything like that until I retire...I would trash it up so bad it would be a cryin' shame..

Still...that is an interior that speaks...'Dress to Impress...and Functional Performance'...

Manual trans and more importantly...Manual Transfer Case...

No computer program is going to decide if 4X4 is 'Good' for you at any time...

I can't trust the 4X4 mode in the Girl Truck...it is button operated...and unreliable...IT decides what you get...Not you...

It DOES have cupholders, though...small consolation...

sometimes that can be a blessing...to drown out all of the unwanted noise always competing for your attention...

At least he chooses what music that sticks...must be working...as far as I can see...he is creative, innovative, and productive...if I had a performance and restoration shop...I would want him on my team...

As a matter of fact...now that I am thinking in that direction...if we all were gathered under one gigantic roof...and had free creative license...and sizeable startup funds...and a good administrative backbone...this crowd would probably be world-beating and trend-setting...

Somebody write up a business plan and approach some gearhead oligarch and float an idea...

Who is on board with that..?
