Bomber Seats


DONE!



Seats are comming together very well!
Getting the rivits done and the seat angle back a bit.


Spent a couple of days with Nick, Building Bomber seats. WE have a bead roller and he motorized it  with a foot control! So nice! Then Nick located a pickup box so we  put it on top of the ratty wood deck to see how it looked without shortening. We decided to leave it stock length just like some  young fellow would have done in 1950. He decided to go with the original length. I agree!
The seats will get some more beads but are going to look quite original. I took up some AN 470 rivets and we did some test riveting and with some of our old Aircraft  bucking bars  and rivet sets we will be OK
Tail gate is as good as any you would find these days
