old-tank Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 This is what you get when you have broken springs, seat padding that is turning to powder and a fat ass that sits on the edge of the seat. This one was previously repaired using fiberglass and even screen wire material. Repair was made using plastic from an oil bottle and using panel repair JB weld, some Bondo and plastic paint. The silver bead was not repaired since this is not a show car anymore and it weakens the seat material when you take it apart and replaced. This seat skirt is specific to small body 55 Buicks with four-way power seats and is made of unobtainium and if you do find one it's in just as bad shape. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
