Imagine the prestige pulling into a truck stop and someone saying nice truck, then being able to say., thanks I restored it myself.
I think how you decided to go with the rubber front floor carpet in the bunk and seat covers was a smart move for the type of work your doing. Love the truck man you should be very proud!
PRIDE AND GLORY BROTHER. real trucks don't have D.E.F

Hey EZ, if your truck is going to be used for work, run with seat covers and keep those seats. She’s looking good buddy!
Yep that's right, no point putting new seats in and covering them up.
The production value in the coffee spill was priceless! 😂 I showed my wife. Look this guy actually spilled something on himself just for us!
lol.

i cant stop watching it!
I'm 2 years behind on episodes ... this was the best laugh I've had in a bit, thx
I like the seat covers better. As you showed the coffee being spilled, and the coke, milk shake, hot dog trimmings of mustard, ketchup and relish, french fries, chicken tenders and M&M's all over you, the seat, and the floor - it's seat covers for me !!!!! Nice job on the rubber floor mat, great choice over rug !!! She is starting to look like an award winning show truck now, everything coming together !!! It is such a good feeling to see something you have planned and done yourself - it is an extension of you !!!!! I see the quality craftsmanship, pride and happiness in your work. Well done !!! Looking forward to the next video !!!!!!!
Pretty much the only channel that gets a like from me before the video starts. Don't ever change EZ!
Do you watch Twinsticks?
Twinsticks👍
عالی بود ، ولی ماشین بازهای ایرانی یه چیز دیگه هستن 😉
@@struedel25 Im here because of Twinsticks, Found out about this channel when he was doing the roof replacement on LBL.
A lot of pride has gone into that wagon.
Yes mr ezrider has never done anything half way
The fact you included you hitting a pothole and spilling your coffee 😂😂
Definitely nothing wrong with those seats. They're covered anyway so if they're comfortable then I myself would roll with it. But it's your truck and your money. The idea of rubber floor on front and carpet in the sleeper is the way to go. I agree with easier to clean the front and soft on the toes in the morning.. excellent job EZ.
Lol the drink spill was pretty hilarious man. I can tell the interior had you very happy. Probably the most out of everything you've done.
Glad you liked my work ( I’m the James stamped on the backside of your panels)
beautiful work James. true craftsman👍
Sure enjoying the restoration videos. Little by little 👌👌

You need to sale that floor template! Pain in the rear cutting out around pedals. You made it look easy
I’m sure most will say new seats but it’s a big expense and not their money. I like the seats once you put on the covers. Matches the interior nicely and if the seats still have good support then why bother just yet. Get the truck all buttoned up and put her to work then decide once she starts making you money. She’s coming along beautifully my man
Absolutely agree with this approach.
@@charlesscott1493 yeah, Ive been working my truck hard and my seat is so uncomfortable and I'm dying for a nice Bostrom wide glide but I'm so cheap lol
That's so Cool that You and Twinstick are doing the same thing to your Truck's and You call your Truck Old Red and Twinstick calls His Old Blue l think that it's Awesome that the Both of You are Restoring your Truck's and are going to use them that's just Awesome to see and watch your progress your Truck is looking Amazing can't wait to see it finished I'm sure You can't either Take Care Brother Enjoy your Day
Your interior looks better than most new trucks. Nice work!
Our trucks over the pond are great because the top steps are covered so we can kick our boots off and leave them outside. It’s amazing how doing that keeps the dust down. Looking better with every episode! 👍🏼
That's a great idea!
Glad to see someone else uses CAD. Cardboard assisted design! Truck is amazing, one heck of a transformation!
cad works fantastic....lol
She looks great, I drove those 359s a lot, back in the 80s . Rubber/carpet is the best combo,
The truck is coming along just fine. The seat covers are a smart idea. Great job.
Your very smart and have such a good attitude for working . It’s so good to see i miss my trucks and enjoy watching you build your truck .
Watching you work on yours makes me feel like I'm working on mine...but I'm to lazy. Win, win!
Lol
Shame on me I peaked. That floor covering looks top notch.
I think for all the hardworking days Jimmy puts in he shouldn’t have to worry about messing up the seats. Seat covers are a smart move. They look utilitarian but it’s a work truck and you need to be comfortable, even if you’re the copilot; right Jimmy.
Tail wags from Jimmy...”there may be hope for my obsessed human, yet!” 🐾🐾
Your truck you do what you want brother!
I'm still a little undecided honestly
@@Ezrider359 well considering the facts you said with the dog and heavy haul seat covers might not be the most appealing but they are seat savers they also help with smell(because they can be easily washed). I say fuck it your truck your living space prolly the better idea! And save a couple bucks on seats!
Like you said, it's a work truck. With having your dog in the truck the seat covers really save the material, and it's easy in and out to wash them. Good call!
I ride with my shoes off, so I cut a piece of carpet for the drivers side, just pull it out and knock the dirt off. Keep the covers, paint the pedals.
Enjoyed as always, THANKS
👀 *"No peekin"* 🤣 You had me rolling! LOL. Great choice with the rubber in front 🙂👍 Looks great!
thank you, glad you enjoyed it👍
Cab looks great, nothing wrong with the seats in there, you've been right so far! You've done a remarkable job, your so close to the finish ...hope we get to see it regularly after the build is done, you know the experience off the truck at work or maintenance
My Saturday go too!! Coffees on. Enjoying. Cheers:)!
Cheers
As far as what I think about the seats and seat covers, it doesn’t matter to me. It’s your build. I’m just happy you’re documenting it for us to watch and/or learn. Thanks for that!
As long as seats are comfortable keep em. Not our call you the one gotta live with. Great vids!!
If you are happy with the seats, roll with them.... Time will tell in the end. Looking forward to the next installment.
My most recent truck was an '04 Pete tri-axle log truck, and when the cab carpeting got bad in it, I got the brain dead idea to go with hardwood flooring. Looked beautiful, stained and polyurethaned, sound deadener mat under it. Fabulous!! Until you got in it with muddy boots on. Scratched it all to hell. Wish I went with a rubber mat like you just installed. I will give it a thumbs up for the seat covers! If you have a hot air heat gun, you can soften the covers up and tighten them to a more formed fitting. Don't get to close with it though...lol.
I would like to Congratulate you Sir your a genius seems you’ve built a truck from scratch , you’ve done Each trade yourself I’ve really enjoyed watching your videos your taking great pride in your Work
this is very nice . it's a working truck , so seatcovers are more than ok. different seats gives a bit of charm
Keep the seats. If they were structurally bad ,that would be different. They are going to be covered anyway. It's going to be a great looking work truck either way. Nice job Ezra.
Just imagine getting up to go to work and having fun with ol red! She’s a beaut!! GOOD JOB !
Couldn't agree more with the rubber floors. Manual locks, windows and rubber floors are the way to go. Interior is looking really good, even though i don't like grey the door panels look really nice. You're building a great working truck that is increasing in value that it will hold. A couple of the police style adjustable spot lights would be super cool.
Your wife might get a kick out of this I was watching one of your videos and your face was actually clean when you got done. I love watching your videos, and you're not afraid to tackle any jobs on that truck
Lol
You are doing one hell of a job on that old truck I have watched every episode from the very beginning and haven't missed one yet me and my children look forward to watching your videos when you post them , they love old red and always saying dad can we go for a ride lol , keep up the great work on the restoration and on the videos we love you channel and we really look forward to alot more content from you
Keep with the seat covers if you're going somewhere special take them off Red is a wonderful working truck she looks magnificent! Alan Northern Ireland 👍
What a difference man EZ RIDER you are damm good at everything you do buddy.
Thanks 👍
@@Ezrider359 yez zir
The seat covers are like the rubber floor: Perhaps not the best looking option, but definitely the one with the most practicality in a working truck.
Classic interior just beautiful and that dashboard
The more I see of this project Ezra, the more addicted I become, those seat covers are great, for your kind of work they are practical, a fantastic job, I love it. Can't wait to see it pulling a nice load out on the road, all due respect to you.
Next time I am in North Dakota, I would love to see her
Brilliant video again mate. Definitely done the right thing putting the rubber in the cab 100%. And the seats are good for the job. You’re not gonna see them anyway fella 👍 one beautiful truck. Stay safe bro. Regards from south London England 🏴
Hi EZ yep don't worry about your choice in rubber floors for the cab after 4 years of hauling spuds for Con Agra I can guarantee you there will be times you'll cry when you see the interior of your truck no way you can keep it clean. Looking good now, thanks for the video.😊Wait until you have about 1/2 inch of dust and dirt on your new seat covers.........
I personally really like the rubber floors so much easier to keep clean
Looks great. Enjoyed the video.
Everything thing is looking so good on old red
You and Twin-Sticks do an Excelent Job at Restoring those old Irons, i love it! makes me wanna do it myself everytime too when i watch one of your videos^^ I do perfer the Actual Working Truck you put together then the "show" truck of Twin-Sticks but i love both of them! Keep on Trucking! :)
Nice job. Made it look easy! 👍
i just love watching your show
My dog Harley’s seat has a seat cover also. The truck is turning out great.
Youre doing a great job on this truck. I cant wait for the next video.
Outstanding job
I put seat covers on everything , cheaper to replace a seat cover than a complete seat when you have grease somewhere and sit in the truck . Looking good Ezra👍🏽
I’d say, try the seat first with your covers. Looks doesn’t always relate to comfortable, but practical almost always relates to economy. Enjoy a nice day.
It has come along ways the interior looks awsome doing a fine job sir
Best Pete channel out there. You are one smart hombre. And you even loan out your tools to help everyone else. You are a top shelf kinda guy.
Another awesome job👍👍
Since this is a working truck and not just for show only, you should just do whatever is the most practical for you. Sure, looks matter, but in the end, user comfort is a must have when you're using it for your work.
I have had that same brand of seat cover on my seat for 4 years held up very well but the sun fade made it time for a new one searched for something a little better looking and form fitting to the seat I got the redline seat covers from Raneys there laser cut for excellent fit and they look sharp they have a gray and black might be worth a look truck is looking awsome
You make everything seem easy
Looking really good.
The interior lights you put in look great. Nice and bright!
What a Beautiful 359, by far my favorite Peterbilt model😍💕
You have done so much work to old red, I love this Peterbilt build!! Thanks for sharing man!!
I say ask the wife about the seat covers. Maybe she'll go for a ride. Another awesome video.
Great video everything looks amazing.
Always the best background music!! Great choices!!
If you’re going to use this truck, go with the old Sears and seat covers, it’s gonna look great either way !!
This is your truck your money being spent on it and none of us who are watching these videos have any say so what you are to do with your own property so do what you do ..you’re doing a great job on this truck and its coming along just fine. this is your truck not ours. 🤓
The rubber floor mat is the only way to go for a working truck. Ole Red is coming along real nice.
Thanks 👍
As your going to be using the truck for work I would go with those seats and the seat covers they look cool anyway 👍 You can always change them out in the future if they get scuffed up but I think they'll do just fine and they look comfortable and that's what you need for long journeys. By the way the inside looks amazing is there no end to your talents 😎
Truck is lookin proper dude. I love the black and grey. Keep making it happen dude!
My favorite truck piterbilt....
piterbilt means hulk💪
Great call on the floor covering! I had a red 84 Pete and I ordered it with same type of setup and never regretted it. So easy to clean. Really enjoy watching your channel. Greetings from MN.
100% with you on the floor mate, I always go for rubber/vinyl because my trucks are work trucks.
I'm beginning to think you have become a slacker! Lol
Great work Mr.
Another good video. Thanks for posting!
You are very talented person keep going my friend
The stuff you got for the floor is perfect and he did a good job putting it in nice the seat covers yeah they’re worth it protects your seats
Looks great!
I ran those same seat covers in my 2013 KW T800 heavy haul truck and I'm with you...I don't like seat covers but as far as seat covers go they're about the best bang for ur buck. U will have to keep flattening them out and tightening them up but they're about the best economical choice out there. Keep up the great work. Can't wait to see it all finished.
Most of my 359's I had installed 1x6 Hand Scrapped Black Walnut Flooring in the Cab Floors.
Great progress
Seats look great, their practical its a work truck. You can upgrade when you feel like it. Awesome job on fitting the rubber floor, really superb. Good old Guitar town kicking it in the background 🎸👍.
I say if you’re comfortable driving in them for long hours.. Roll with it !!!!!
Go with the seat covers .trucks looking fabulous.
I like the floor up front even if you only drive oth you still bring in dirt! Looking good!
Love it. My routine of watching you and a couple of other tubers was with my wife. We sat thru all your video's. Today I looked at the steering wheel your wife bought and how my wife got a smile so big from it. Keep your family dreams going.
That is awesome!
amaaaazing restoration, i found your channel exactly the day, you published the proyect of an old truck you found, and bought...
so i've been following the progress... and it was an amazing journey...
btw, i preffer without the seat covers...
keep it great...!!!
Your doing a great job.
Thank you!
Love all your music.
You do quality work bud
You deserve new seats !!! No covers,,,,, Enjoy the feel, look and smell !! Aloha
Even with new seats I would run covers or I would end up with a tear in a seat within 2 years.... Been there done that
I always feel exhausted after watching your videos, I give you 100% for the effort and things you do on your own especially the cutting of the chassis the only similar thing I have done was a new rear chassis on my land rover and that was with help.
seat covers do a job...ya gotta be able to make it all work for what your doing with the truck... so go for it! i like the effort you're putting in with the project. nice job!
Jimmy's back on the scene.👍
