The wheels are currently held in place by "Fresh air"....and a rubber band under the tyre to stop it rolling away !!!!
Might need more than that...right??...I'll work on that.

The seats are a flop from a mold owned by one of our members...Steve Barbe.. I have the same seat in my race Cobra.
I think it's originally a seat from a VW Beach Buggy.

I Liked it because it "lays back"...i.e. a lot of the fixed seats are made with an "L" shape...with the back at 90 degrees to the base...these are more laid back, and are not only really comfortable, but help get your chest back and away from the steering wheel.
Often see this type of seat in Cobras, sitting a bit too upright, and with a big space behind the back of the seat.
The driver gets all cramped up against the steering wheel.

I also had the seat made about an inch slimmer than my race car seat,had to make a bit of room to allow for forward and back movement on rails...for Joanne to have the occasional drive.

I'll update with some decent shots when it has a lot more done .

Thanks for the nice comments.

Cheers,
Warren.
