Thanks for the comments. The body work is original and in great shape. The stripe job wouldn't be too hard to reproduce with paint stripes but the guy would have to know what he's doing. The seat was home built of flat steel bent up to replace the pan and does not use the factory hindges. It slips under the cross brace in frount and a bolt from the underside on the rear along with rubber bumpers.
