[QUOTE="Shaugh, post: 477164, member: 19781"] It's been a slow couple weeks... lots of rain and humidity makes it near impossible to work outside without dropping dead. I did get the dash and foot boards made out of some nice cedar. [ATTACH type="full" alt="WNDS5178.JPG"]106935._xfImport[/ATTACH] Since one of the side emblems had some damage, I decided to put the good one on the dashboard... Got the new transom installed: [ATTACH type="full" alt="JCRA5710.jpg"]106936._xfImport[/ATTACH] The seats were surprisingly easy to make. All you need is a 1.5" metal hole saw: [ATTACH type="full" alt="BHGO6241.JPG"]106937._xfImport[/ATTACH] https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DQBD7GH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 And one of these dimple dies with an air hammer: https://www.amazon.com/Sheet-Metal-Flared-Hole-Dimple/dp/B07B8V1KPH/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=dimple+die+1.5&qid=1598809012&s=automotive&sr=1-1 [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMEW9653.JPG"]106938._xfImport[/ATTACH] Trim the edges with this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017FMGV7G/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Totally happy with how they came out.
