I was running errands on the 10th and I sat in the car and the driver’s seat broke. The metal frame of the seat actually cracked (never heard of this happening before). The crack was in the seat bottom where the seat back bolts in. The metal actually stretched and cracked. I’m not a big buy by any means, just average. Saturday morning I spent taking the seat apart down to the frame to prep it for welding. Saturday afternoon I spent driving around trying to get hog rings for the seat upholstery. I got the pliers but never found the hog rings. Sunday my neighbor welded the seat frame. Once the frame was welded, I painted it black just like stock. I than swapped the seat bottom foam that was bad from a spare 84-85 passenger seat I had. The foam was a direct fit with no modification. I reused the old hog rings and put the fabric back on and put the seat back together. The repaired seat definitely hugs better with the foam replaced. Now I just need to have a section of the vinyl replaced.
