Fred, you have no idea how much! I would love to do that and come for a visit. I'm still sorry I didn't get out your way when I was in California  :'(

but the time off to do something like that... just doesn't happen anymore for me, 6 days a week, 52 weeks of the year and the only time off is the long holiday weekends.... and I still have to many projects going on right now to consider another... currently have 9 Pinto's in my yard  ???

Dave that's because it was winter time. The west coast girl's can't keep their bikini's on out here maybe it's to hot for them.  Fred   8)

Dave, you have to understand the west coasters... when I lived out there 20+ years ago....

60 degrees they turn on heat, and wear hats, gloves, coats...

I was in shorts and tank top... they thought I was weird...

(OK... maybe not 60, but 50 is freezing to them)

OK Fred, I want it! If the back is Perfect? (for 30+ years old) with no rips or seams coming loose? I Just need the back, not the bottom and Oops! I forgot to look at the rail for the seat, I will tonight.

do you think it can be boxed and shipped thru ups? will it be to big? you have my zip right?

I don't see any tears. To keep ship down what if I took cover off then it could go in small box with very little weight.  Fred   :)

Fred, I'll take the whole back and pay the shipping... I found a good seat rail so I won't need one of thoes.

Just the complete seat back, I'll PM the ship to address :-)

Whoo Hoo!
