Good Luck, I'm sure you can come up with the answer.  Looks like you have a few projects going on.

Very nice work ! You won't see too many seats done that way any more . Stuff like that is becoming a lost art.

dreracecar - you got alot of neat stuff there, enjoyed seeing your pictures. “Old school” takes much talent, you could teach the class.  DF

Bruce... is there any welds in that seat or is it from one continuous piece of aluminum? Nice work!

Different car but the process is the same, The bucket is shallow and flat on this one because it has a seperate seat cushion where the first one is deeper and more round for the one piece seat cover.

Its more of a desire to do it the way they were done originaly, still takes skill to make the ones that look like overturned rain gutters.
