Default '62 Econo questions?

I have a '62 Econo PU that I would like to get running and restore.

Questions -

I have drained oil and removed oil pan for cleaning. What can I run thru the engine to clean out any sludge While I have the pan off?

I want to change seats maybe to bombers? Anyone know of bombers made for Econos?

I want to put on small baby moons. Where can I get baby moons to fit?

Thanx for any answers!

This is only my opinion, but, I believe you would do just as well if you changed the oil and filter more frequently instead of opening " Pandora's Box" with an engine flush. (When they opened Pandora's box all sorts of bad things came out!)

Default OK!

Hey, that sounds easy enough. Maybe add a little Marvel Mystery Oil & change oil & filter as soon as the oil looks dirty. I'm going to clean the oil pan so that should help, too.

Now, about those seats and baby moons?

Thanx Much!
