That finish is Mirror smooth. The reflection is really really crisp.
Great Job |

Re: My Unexpected '66 SWB-Fleet-Restomod Project!
Well guys,
I received my seat yesterday, and of course, needed to install it immediately to see how it looked! It looks sooooo nice considering that all of this was done long-distance, with not much contact!!!! I am truly appreciative of Clem's efforts to make this a monumental milestone! Hats-off to Clem & Scottybob for making this happen!!!! I really think that the seat makes the entire interior POP! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Can't come up with anything that would be even close to cooler than that dude. It's perfect. Toss that baggie on the air-ride dealio and let's roll!!

Re: My Unexpected '66 SWB-Fleet-Restomod Project!
I would feel self conscious putting my butt on that...puts my seat to shame.

Re: My Unexpected '66 SWB-Fleet-Restomod Project!
Thanks man!
I am overwhelmed with the look! Thanks!!! They almost looks like black & white pics, don't they? Thanks!!! Ya think??? Thanks Greg, but you would need to fight my girlfriend for it! LOL! Quote:
Great thanks for all of your efforts on MY seat! Everyone that looks at it asks me where I bought it...LOL! It is soooo comfy too!..I made an excellent choice to pick you to help me out with this. Again, many thanks! Quote:
I kept the baggy on it while there was no carpet, and it was getting thrown every which-way!...Baggy is now in the trash! Quote:
I am going thru some personal issues right now, but the way that the truck ran today on it's maiden voyage, makes me say that I could probably drive it anywhere!...but I only put 40 miles on it....LOL!

Re: My Unexpected '66 SWB-Fleet-Restomod Project!
![]() This is outstanding. Not just the how, but the what........ I think you could build a truck around just having that seat. It just shows again, there is a place for true craftsmanship. Well done all.
