Finally got around to finishing the bottom seat cushion. The cover fit really tight so I had to ask my neighbor to come over and help compress the springs while I stapled the cover across the front. Other than that, the install was fairly easy.

Good straight line across the front and seems to be well filled. Excellent work, Dan.

Seat backs need to be thin
 
I had my seats on my F-3 done by a professional. They really look good. But, he got the seat back too thick and my stomach is close to the steering wheel. Those 49 - 52 cabs are tight. If my belly gets larger I'll have to have it redone. No, not my belly. I mean the seat back.

I have the same problem with my 54. I should not have put foam in the seat back.

You think the F-1 cab is tight? I initially thought I wanted a Model "A" roadster pickup but I couldn't even get my legs under the steering column. Part of the reason I bought the F-1 is because the cab is so roomy.
