Post by stolle »

been working on the insides lately, fixing up the drivers seat. here are some before and afters, i took 89 crx seats and used the good parts to fix the bad ones in my 91 seats. i cut all the stitches and sewed everything, got too excited putting it back together and forgot to bolt the recline mechanism back on, so i have to take the seat back apart again.

not perfect you cant tell by looking at them, pretty good for someone whos used a sewing machine twice in the past, probably 10 years. ill post more pics installed if i ever get time to work on it.

I'm jealous. My passenger seat is starting to wear.

i noticed a small tear in my passenger seat too, its a losing battle the time spent fixing that seat, it might wear out and tear within a few months.

Good work on the seats.

Hey Stolle

Nice meeting you the other day. Love that color what is the paint code for it? Great buy too, I am very envious. I drove (with trailer behind) 950 miles trying to find a rust free car a few weeks ago bought the 4th one I looked at. I think yours looks much nicer than what I found. Thanks again for hooking me up.

Stolle's garage is awesome. Nice and roomy and holds heat naturally very well. Jealous.
