1967 Lemans Project - LS376/480 & 4L80E Build

[Pontiacken]

Here is the lower seat frame with the flat stock washer welded in along with a couple of ugly additions to the cross rod. I put those on because the seat bottom wanted to wonder a bit from side to side this keeps it tight against the seat bracket.




Here the foam has been trimmed from the seat back to better fit up against the body.




I did have to trim one apolstery clamp to fit the modifications to the lower seat frame.


Here are a couple of shots of the finished passanger rear seat. One shows the relationship of the seat to the OEM arm rest which I currently plan to use.






I finally got started on the driverside rear seat.


All was going very well until I broke my tubing bender just before needing it to bend the cross rod. Well that's where the old saying comes from "Use the right tool for the job". I just don't have the right tool and the cheesey light brake line tubing bender just did not stand up to rolled steel rod.


So this is where I stopped today.


Will get back at it when I can. But it may be a few weeks.
