daddy like:whistle:

Looks good man.....

comign from someone who has just gone through a custom seat attempt myself, I know the work involved. Even moreso for you because it's gonna look pro.

yes, i agree. this has been probably the hardest part of what i have done so far.

i got the new material today to cover the seat again. i don't like the old stuff. it will still be black, but i am going to try and do it all in one piece. try and clean it up some. i will post pics when i get it done. going to try tonight.

thanks for the compliments!!!!!

yeah i think it will look pretty good once its al buttoned up. im waiting to see how it runs when its all done!:woohoo:

ok guys and girls. i have finished the covering of the seat. i was able to get this cut down and covered in one pice. this was a pian

at first i didn't like the pivot being able to be seen, but i think that it has a "mechanics" look to it. also i think that was really the only way that i could make it match the width of the tail section.

i will not be doing this any time soon again!!!!!!

Fun stuff. I ended up doing mine in one piece, after many failed attepts to sew a cover. It came oput much better, even though the stretching and stapling was pretty trying on the first few tries. I finally used som spray adhesive (on the back of the vinyl only...not contact cement style)to make it tacky, and that really helped me get the shape to conform with my cut foam.

God bless!
