Buckets are in!

With the gracious help, again, from Patrick, got my 60 bench converted to a bucket seat yesterday (Saturday) and have to say, it was SOOO easy!

All I have left to do it restitch the new bucket, and then paint and reupholster the console lid!

Pic time!

Tara, you know it's because the stock seat has more strength to support people being slammed into it when you go WOT.

Thanks, Will.

I haven't had the bucket restitched yet. It is just folded, tucked and wedged between the console and pass bucket for right now. :o

I need to get some money together to afford the restitch.
