Aww, now come on, all of that beautiful metalwork & you're making seats out of plywood?!? _________________ Everybody born before 1975 has a story, good, bad, or indifferent, about a VW.
GOFUNDYOURSELF, quit asking everyone to do it for you!
An air cooled VW will make you a hoarder.
Do something, anything, to your project every day, and you will eventually complete it. |

Never questioning your vision, but I was expecting aluminum bomber seats. Those padded will be much more comfortable. _________________ D-Dubya Manx clone - 63 Short pan,1914.
Rosie 65 bug - My mostly stock daily driver.
Woodie 69 VW woodie (Hot VWs 7/12).
"John's car" 64 VW woodie - The first ever
Maxine 61 Cal-look bug - Cindy's daily driver.
Max - 73 standard Beetle hearse project - For sale
66 bug project - Real patina & Suby conversion
There's more, but not keeping them... |

Hey I met 1/2 of this team. I think they like the splinters. I question nothing these guys are doing, except not letting me ride shotgun. _________________ I think he meant "rare", as in "not well-done" |

Only two things get upholstered. Leaf springs and seats. Where's your underseat stash box?
