Well worth the wait.  Now for some "seat" time in the Lime 69 :drive:


I couldn't wait to get these in.
I am SO ready to try them out. They sure are comfy. Lots of support vs the original seats, that's for sure.
The upholsterer even mimicked the stock pattern on the back of the seats also!
They look great, look like the ProCar Elite 1100's, but in white with a different more stock appearing seat cover, I like the bolsters they will help keep you in the center of the seat better too...

LOL   :lol:
Sure, Clayton.
I took some of these a while ago, around this time last year. Well before the seat swap, also had the front plate made up, some other minor changes. Never ends, which makes it fun.

He went really radical for him on that Challenger using a bright color for the topp and dividing the the two with a stripe.

Did a few more small things on the car, namely just some billet dress up items such as hood & trunk hinges.
Also installed a billet latch to match, like on White&Red's car.
Trunk hinges installed fairly easily, hardest part was removing the rear seat which for some reason is a bear on this car. Thanks to Just6T9 who was there to lend a hand (err... knee), took both of us quite a while just to get the seat out. After that installation was fairly straightforward, only mod is adding some mounting brackets for the support pistons under the package tray. We did this the same day when we added the V21 to his car.

A few more. You can see the mounting brackets get attached in the pic.

Yet another surprise is in store so I'm told, when the time comes I'll post another update.

Funny how one car the seats will practically drop out and the next is a battle royale.

You're right, Chris! I corrected my above post. That seat was no match for your knee. And thank you! :lol:   :cheers:
Hopefully next time after adjusting the floor brackets it will come out much easier.  :yesnod:

Luke, the wheel is a Grant Elite GT 742. Anyone that carries Grant wheels should offer this one.
Here it is from Summit:
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/grt-742

Pretty sure I got a deal on the wheel from a private seller on eBay, just added the horn button to it:

My back seat is a pain to get out as well for some reason.
