Re: Roaring Forties #81
Simon,

Could you throw a completed seat on a scale, when they're done? I'm curious about weight...fiberglass vs. aluminum.
Thanks!

Re: Roaring Forties #81
Simon-

Your car looks great, and progressing nicely. How big a wheel/tire can you fit in the rear with the Gulf flares?

Thanks

Re: Roaring Forties #81
Bill,
Finished the seats tonight and they weight 12 lbs. I made them out of the 1/8" marine grade alum. that I had left over from the floor pan.

Re: Roaring Forties #81
Bill D,
I have 10"x15" vintage wheels with 295/50/15. I think with the right offset or backspace you could probably get 12" to fit.

We are off to Kentucky, Chicago and on to see family in StCatharines Ontario. Will have to wait to fire the engine up when we get back.
