Richieu -Technical help desk
Hi Richie,
I have a good one for you too...pics coming on sunday. My coupe has a lot of lap welds that are starting to rust, or have rusted away quite a bit already. What's the best way to stop this where it hasnt made things crunchy yet? And what to do with the places where the rust has done it's damage....the weird thing is that it mostly rusts on one side of the lapwelds.. I have this problem around the seams of the rear panel, on my right sill, and more disturbingly behind the door at the front of the body (there is a horizontal seam there that has rusted through. I get the feeling that these lap-weld seams are the biggest design-flaw as far as rust-sensitivity is concerned. FABRICA MI DIEM, PVNC! |

Hi Richie, heres a good one for you, I'm above average height 6'6" and would like to fit a fixed back bucket seat in my car. It needs to be as low as possible and quite far back, the front edge of the seat somewhere around halfway betweeen the original front and rear mountings. What would be the best way to do this? Thanks

Thanks Ok you are going to need a side mounted seat for starters (with side mounts obviously) The easiedt way to get the seat down and as far back as you need to go is to do the following. 1. drill 2 8 or 10mm holes in each mount close to the ends of the bottom of the mount. 2. wind on a nylock nut to secure the bolts in place. 3.fit the side mounts to the seat and place the seat where you feel the most comfortable. You should now have the mounts sitting with the 4 bolts on the floor. 4.if you need the seat lower you will need to drill holes in the side mounts to get the seat as low as possible in the mounts. 5. once the seat is in the ideal position mark the bolts positions and drill through the floor (check for obstructions like fuel and brake lines before drilling) 6. before pushing the bolts through place the largest washers you can find to help spread the load. 7. place the same type of washers underneath and bolt them up. 8. You might need to pack the bolts with washers to level the seat once bolted. Hope this helps if not let me know and I'll take you to plan B! (requires welding) |
