[wct49]

Its been 3 days. update?

Painted picture frames for Lori in the paint booth! Trying to figure out the seat situation. Lori saw my seats and told me I can not put those back in. So I have been searching and scratching my head. Need a seat that is 7-7/12 inches including the slide. Does anyone know which bestop rear seat works with a 40?

I will be painting Sunday!!!

I FOUND my seats!!!! This has been a P.I.T.A. I am going with Procar sportsman pro: they come with slides, have the about the same measurements as the ones I have now. But the bottom cushion is 1.5" shorter. This should be around 16" from floor pan to top of bottom cushion.
These have the cut outs for the shoulder harness. Should I go with the Y type harness or H type?
Also should I go with vinyl/velour- might not be as hot...or Simulated leather.

Thanks for the kind words. I will take a few pictures later this week with a real camera. Gotta get some stainless steel hardware to start putting it back together.
