Creating the seat...

Anyone have tools to create this? Or know a shop who can help?

I want to update the seat on the 67 I just bought.

I am thinking of getting a seat from the junkyard for the the frame.
So I can work on it and still drive until it's finished.

I want to do my seat like this.

Either look around for some scrap metal or it would be off to a shop that does sheet metal.
But you should be able to find enough metal around a wrecking yard to made something work. or buy that one off of who ever owns that one.

Ok, I just re-read this... I may need to be a little clearer based on Garbz comment.

I want a seat like this...

I think I can find someone to create the upholstery, but I need to get the metal work done.... I am very much interested in NOT scalding myself on a metal seat in Arizona.

But it would seriously be the rat rod style if I didn't do any padding on the seat Bill...
