I was just curious what fair market value for one would be. It still has the original cover on in, but the material needs to be restitched if it were to be reused. I see none in the classifieds so I don't know what they are running for nowdays. I have one gathering dust in the shed and I am thinking of letting it go as I have no use for it at the present time. I just don't wanna cheat myself by selling it for too little if I decide to do it.

Thanks

Also wondering the same thing as I too have a flat back seat. Don't see them appear too often in the classifieds so there's no way to measure up for market value.

I pulled it out today and it is actually pretty rough. The frame on the bottom would pretty much have to be remade and a couple of spots on the springs would have to be replaced. The vinyl was pretty crunchy too. I guess I should have looked at them more closely when I put them in storage. Laughing
