Re: My 1970 GMC “Project Splice”

Well that escalated quickly! I learned today that my bucket seat frame, possibly frames are bent. Possibly from an accident I'm thinking. So once I got the passenger seat in and saw how it was fitting to the rear window frame, out came the exacto knife and the seat foam was a goner. Well it wasn't quite as easy as that. For anyone wondering, it is not an easy or clean job. Once I had the foam removed from the frame and shredded all over my garage floor, I discovered the culprit. The twist in the backrest was extremely difficult to straighten but I got it straight again! There were also the two cross bars between the top and bottom of the seat that I had to straighten. Those were easy. I will have to re weld the broken spot weld and it will be good to go. It now fits very nice in the cab. Next will be the driver's seat foam.
