It looks awfully solid! If you need a new poptop canvas let me know and we can get you one of the thick Amish weather resistant ones for the club price.

I wish Rick....... Think we are shooting for next spring. The guy helping me with the body work is a friggin perfectionist.... Plus, budget is a consideration and we aren't going to half-ass it. So take a little longer but make it a little nicer!

Was looking at these from GoWesty......... Haven't dug too far into it myself...... can get some nice new ones from the UK for $1,400.00 a piece, lol. I am a big guy and need something with some size to it. The Porche and Miata seats aren't going to work for me. I looked into the Vanagon seats and they may be the ticket, but I need to get measurements.

Anything that is after 75 bus or other make will need brackets made to make them fit. I think it was Bren who put the headrest style mid year bay seats in his 69 westy.
I'm 6'4", not a stick figure, and don't mind the stock seats in my early bays too much.
