      It's very nice. Try out my street--you'll re-think that bench seat. I tried a drive or two with my original Falcon seats, with the new suspension, and my greatest efforts seemed to be found in holding myself in place...

      However long you think your project will take, double it and you might be halfway right.

      Very nice! The lap harnesses with low back bench give the interior a kinda vintage race look.
