Started the tare down of my front and rear seats, will blast them and replace a few springs. Seems to be very weak under driver ars, this was one of the dirtiest jobs I've done, with all the mouse crap and nests they had built. These seats haven't been sat in for decades. Most people haven't seen a split bench or the inner parts, and in one pic is what's left of the broadcast sheet that was under the passenger side bench seat but unfortunately has little left of it. I need to try to find a few parts for this if anyone has an idea, I think there are covers on the sides of the armrest to cover the hinges and need to figure what to do with the crappy worn out headrest. I have new deluxe parchment covers but will need to get all new padding

Not as hard to disassemble as I thought it would be, got them all cleaned, lubed and put back together. Found some seat springs on a 66 chevelle and almost have my bench seat repaired, not easy making those to the right shape but turned out fine.
