You want comfortable bomber seats - I got comfortable bombers though not quite as elaborate:



I do have to say that with the top on the car, a course in contortionism (new word!!) wouldn't be bad, especially if you don't have a skinny butt

Those do look great. And the yellow roadster warms my heart a bit, too. I'll leave out comments about other anatomical parts.

If the ones we're making don't work, it would have been a fun experiment and we'll take appropriate corrective action. I do have plenty of padding on my butt, I should add.

I got the oposite problem in the truck. It's stock 48 bench is tooooooooo soft. Could use some steel to prevent sag!

Still working on the Cutlass, finally have the firewall done and a few more rusted out areas to replace on the base of the windshield. Should get those done tomorrow and get some primer on the firewall and cowl, then it will be back to blocking on the body and starting on routing the wiring.

Finally got the trunk cleaned up and primed. Still working on the inside of the car and the firewall, just borrowed a camera and took some pics of the car so everybody doesn't think I'm just screwing off all winter!!!!!!!!!!

Dave nobody here would think that! We know your idea of vacation is 10 hour days in Garage!

Coming right along. That steering wheel, cleaned up, would look nice in my Vette.

It's kind of nasty looking right now but hopefully it will clean up ok, Mike wants to use it in the car!

I don't blame him, good looking wheel. I found out that 76 is a one year only for a lot of things on the Vette. The steering wheel looks like a Vega wheel and it's expensive to change out though I haven't had a chance to check it out and do some back yard engineering.

Wouldn't be a shop if it didn't have dust everywhere.

With all the grinding and sanding the Cutlass needed, hard to not have a bunch of dust everywhere especially this time of year when it's closed and the doors stay closed!!!!

Thanks for thinking of us and snapping a few pics! It's a pro-street? Or a racer?

It was a drag car, now it's going back to the street.

Thanks Dave.
