Re: 55 Wagon Progress
With the 55's rear seat bottom narrowed to fit the wheel tubs.....
....time to do the same for the seat back. First to blow it apart....
This had a multiple fold down, arm rest in the middle, non 55 looking arrangement. The arm rest will be first to go, and we'll attach the fold down sections together..
The frame is sectioned in the middle, a tube driven inside, and TIG welded around the perimeter..
Then the seat innards are trimmed accordingly to make a one piece back..
Then some 14 gauge strips are cut out to join the two sections together..
That should work, tomorrow we'll work on the new pivot brackets..
