Seats
Unfortunately, mine was a bench seat car and I already paid
about $125 for the pair I have. Sounds like I didn't get such a good
deal for the amount of rust that was hiding under the covers. The
frames are fine, so I probably will just bite the bullet and get the
complete spring kits.
Thanks, Matt
