Low Buck Bench Seat Build up TECH for cheap poor bastards....
Here are some step by step pictures on the easiest bench seat ever built.

1. I started with some 2x4's and a sheet of plywood. cut out the frame and bench seat pattern. nailed it together and mocked it up

[Antibilly]

Bench seat in place.

[Antibilly]

Some black paint for effect and style

[Antibilly]

the seat and frame painted and in place.

[Antibilly]

After adding some hinges WALA!!! and secret Cargo space for tools, hot beers, a poncho for long drives in the rain or even some snacks if need be..Owe dont forget the battery

[Antibilly]

Now I added some small handles for easy entry

[Antibilly]

Heres the best thing!!! I used 2 162qt colman cooler add on seat tops for the seat cushion and back rest!!!

[Antibilly]

I had the back rest cut down 3inches to fit

[Antibilly]

all in all rather easy build and it looks pretty good as well. Ive got some finishing touches but it in!!!

[Antibilly]

Oh and dont forget the seat cushions are velcro attached for easy removal and cleaning

[Levis Classic]

Gotta love a simple solution for seating! Nice Job

[Antibilly]

The seat cushions can be found at your local BASS Pro Shops in several differant sizes http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

You're a very clever bastard. Just imagine if you hadn't had your little fling at being a fisherman you wouldn't know about those cushions.
Looks cool, is it comfy?

[Paul]

could you just cut down the whole cooler to sit on?

that way you could keep yer shorts on ice for when it gets real hot out. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

You guys ought to make a trip over here. I've got a big ol' lake full of fish right on my back porch. If you're nice, I might even let you stare at my model A parts.... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[Antibilly]

Will your lake except a small boat? or do you have a traditional dock? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[Bigums]

I've got a boat ramp on my property, brah! I've got my boat pulled up to about 20 feet from the back door. Seriously, if you guys are ever in the area you're welcome to come on over.

I've had to sell a lot of projects and parts to be in a position to buy this house, so I'm damn sure going to enjoy it.
