Thats what i think this one must be like. I didn't see a hole on either side. I'll have to pull it out and investigate it more thoroughly. Thanks for showing me that flier. I may have to see about getting a heavy duty spring as well.

Since Bullitt is in the news I noticed a Mango in the San Francisco chase scene. Might even be a Westy since it appears to have rear curtains:

i just stripped it and today when i got home it was perfect so i wire brushed the frames and painted them. Came out great!! Works busy so i wont be able to drop them off til probably Mon or Tuesday at the auto upholstery place to put the padding and covers on. He said he is busy so i am hoping it doesnt take too long to do just the 4 pieces of front walk thru seats

Right on! I look forward to seeing them done.

I really need to either restore my seat frames or just find some different ones, the seat and backrest are both really bad at the drivers seat... I would love to do that this year, we'll see how that works out...
