    I scored them off a guy that claims they came from a vintage porsche. I have know idea but they look correct. Low back buckets and they are super light. As for money....No i have a little from selling my 56 , but im running out fast.

    Those seats are pretty cool though...I almost thought they were some kind of vintage aircraft seat at first.
    I bet they're light as a feather too:)
    Any luck on that intake yet?

  29. That's some fast work, very cool.

    Henry Js shoulda come from the factory as Gassers, they just fit the Gasser thing perfectly.
     
  30. I'm calling BULLSHIT, that ain't your Rusty J!
