Get a Load of These Custom Truck Seats

December 2, 2013 By Nadeem

Auto Upholstery - The Hog Ring - Custom Truck Seats

I saw a lot of custom interiors at SEMA 2013, but this truck, called “Kosmic Outcast,” takes the cake for wildest seats — not just for its upholstery, but because of its strange frame design.

Sure, they don’t look all that comfortable, but they’re definitely head turners. They remind me of something you’d see in lowrider.

“Kosmic Outcast” was build by Hot Rod Chassis & Cycle. The seats were designed by HRCC owner Kevin Tully and John Mayer of Ogden Top and Trim. Rusty McClintock of OTT did the upholstery.

    Very retro-future. Agree, they may not be the most comfortable seats ever, but they do pop. Like it!

    It’s a Show Rod. Show Rods from the 50’s and 60’s would have wild seats done something like this. Futuristic spacey

    They were designed so that they looked like try were floatin or hovering above the floor when the doors are open

    I would love to see the 50’s 60’s show rod’s make a come back in the now world of too smooth, and slick. Those guys back then really went out on a limb with their ideas. Do you think one headlight would turn the current guys on their ears? Or a plexiglass bubble cockpit? Yeah, bitchin.
