    So its been a while but i got some stuff don on the mod tonight. Ivw been thinking about the steeering and desided i better putin a seat so i know where the hel to put the wheel.

    so i found a old school bus seat for $15.00 at the local junk/hardware store. it was too tall and too narrow but it was cheep an i was going to have to cut it any way. well i choped it about 6 inches and widened it 12 inches. split the base cussion in half and made a new backer board. all thats left is a little foam and the new threads when i get to that point.

    Looks good! I used 3 bus seats to make up the third row seat in the '50Burb. Looks close to original
