JJ67SS Aug 17th, 05, 4:05 PM Nice seats!!!! Did you do the teardown, buildup & reupholstering yourself?
mr2fast4u Aug 17th, 05, 4:06 PM Looks good
Nice rides by the way!
1badss396 Aug 17th, 05, 4:43 PM I did the shreadding of the old seats then had to sand blast the old frames then I did a epoxy primer then paint the frames . My friend has a shop and did the reupholstering & covers for me I did not want to screw it up and they look excellent...All I need to do now is put the backs on and the sides & head rests. Then I need to do the rest of the car, LOL

Buy some of those leopard skin seat covers for them.......or just sit in them and forget about it. ;)
1badss396 Aug 18th, 05, 1:30 PM Ok Jeff I will let you drive the car when EVER I finish it, LOL:beers:
Mr69 Aug 18th, 05, 11:12 PM These restorations don't just come together overnight.
You might want to slow down, take a step back and regroup.
Maybe you're not a stickler for perfection.
In that case, continue on at warp speed !

I'm having trouble removing the back cover of the bucket where the seat button is attached ... is there a trick. How do you remove it?
Finally Mar 16th, 06, 7:11 PM Nice job but could you do the same on a 70 hardtop? I'll let you use my car if you want to find out.:)
1badss396 Mar 16th, 06, 11:18 PM Hank, after I get done with my 69 vert I just might take you up on that offer:D I get bored without caious going on in my every day life. Keeps me going and very busy.
Finally Mar 17th, 06, 6:40 AM Sounds good, just send me a PM anytime you're ready to start.:D

The hard plastic back is held on with screws I think. If your talking about removing the button itself...try a butter knife.
rbarnes Mar 17th, 06, 7:59 AM Getting closer to the finish line. Looking good. Those PUI covers? What foam company did you use? They look better than new.
Hal_396 Mar 17th, 06, 8:56 AM I'm having trouble removing the back cover of the bucket where the seat button is attached ... is there a trick. How do you remove it?
The screws are on the bottom of the back cover. The button cover can easly be pried off.
Andy69 Mar 17th, 06, 10:19 AM Nice work. What's your address and how soon can you get started on mine after I send them to you?? :D
AlsChevelle Mar 17th, 06, 10:38 AM Nice seats I would like to go to buckets in my car some day.
