I saw those, but I was disappointed at the fat square-ish portion of the bolt near the head, so I thought that it would cause the ends of the bolts to stick out 1/8". How did you get around that issue? Make a larger hole in the cowling & seat pan??locO leoN said:
leftlaneguy said:So, I have NOT read thru the entire thread, but enough to realize that you guys (in general) don't pay to close attention to pics... Ol' boy that started this thread did NOT use an NOS pan for this thing... Sure, first pics are of a pristine seat... Next pic (disassembled) shows the same seat/foam/and pan... Subsequent pics show a quite well-aged seat foam, and a VERY rusty pan that's been shiny-painted black... So... He's had one over on all of you!
NO-ONE in thier right mind would EVER cuut-up a perfect seat like that. He's just having one over on y'all....

It is interesting and inventive work for a different solution. I'm not saying anything bad about what he's doing, just that he's having a bit of fun with y'all...leftlaneguy said:Not to get into a pissing-match, here, but I DID look very closely at those pics.. The seat-pan being modified is a horrible, rusty piece. It is so obvious, I really shocked that anyone else hasn't noticed... I've been doing this for so long, I can tell a good part from bad, even from bad ebay photos. Sorry. He's playing you all...

What is the height of that cowl?locO leoN said:OK so using the drill & work bench, I drill 2 holes on either side of the cowl, 1.5 inches apart:
With the holes in the cowl, I mock up where I want the cowl to go, mark where I need to drill the holes on the seat pan then using the workbench to hold the seat pan in place, I drill.
I mount the cowl with some temporary screws that have laying around, ( untill I get some nice ones at Crappy Tire) and voila!!
Here is the seat with the cowl mounted for now:
Now I"ll just prepare to make the bump stop on the front using high density floor foam... ;D
