*... Test fitted the seat covers and there is no provisions for hog rings but they give you the rings and pliers in the kit. Like the street rodder article im adding wood to the frame to staple the covers to. I have some oak im using for filler on the edge of the door panels so ill use that to staple to also..
Heres some pics of the seat covers the seat frame and the door and kick panel on the drivers side and i still need to do some finish work there.. Oh ya there is also a pic of thr rear panel for the quarters and behind the seat without the seat..

No look at the pics.. There isnt any place to attach em unless you wanna drill everyone..  :x  I shoulda took a pic of how the covers attached before i tore it apart. My Bad... They used a plastic channel stretched it and set in place if that makes any sense.. I have one or 2 left ill take a pic tomorrow. Ezboy could duplicate this i would think but im sure it would add cost..
Dinner is ready and im tired..

The other problem is the steel is all double wall and it would be a PIA to drill and also you would never be able to pull the fabric tight enuff doing it that way...

Well the bottom is all done cept the smooth part at the end of the seat near the dash is sewn crooked.. I put in an email to Jerry at ezboy's and we will see what he can do.. The back looks good but its gonna take some batting to smooth out the very top panel.. Ill work on than tomorrow.. I have taken more pics to show what it takes to make all this work but im not gonna post em till prolly this weekend. leonard has been bothering me so when im not working im trying to straighten him out and that may take a while           Msuguydon............ your S^&T is weak were comming to indy for the car show...
