I am 6'4" I need to relocate driver power seat to be able to move back for more leg room. Anyone have an easy solution?
 
No easy one with this problem. The seat mounts in the floor boards don't allow for any front to back relocation of the holes. Best to pull the seat out, take the track off, cut the mount tab off both sides, move the upper part back a couple of inches, weld and re-install. If you cut the track on the bottom you will only have the flat portion showing when the seat is all the way back.
 
I had same issue with my 64. I used some 1/4 steel ribbons about 1 inch wide and welded to the bottom of the runners that bolt to the floor. Then I just relocated the mounting bolts a little farther back. Worked great.
