just came over from IDAC, after I saw you chatting with Steph. Great job you are doing here. I'm watching with much interest, as your car is quite similar to my '58 2 door, and you appear to be after the same sort of build. Keep up the good work!
I thought the seat mounts look pretty good.. Some people will go on about they don't look wright.. But they are not the one that has the car.. You will do a fantastic job of your minor.. Good luck with all that you do to your little car..
Those brackets look great! Awesome job 👍 I'm trying to figure out if I fix the old seats I have, but recently got some electric leather seats donated to the cause, they are a little wide, weigh a ton etc. Trying to figure out if I should buy a mig setup and make my own brackets vs go to a fabricator.
Depends on whether or not you plan to expand your abilities and do more metal-working/welding in the future. If you just want to put in a pair of seats, then getting a fabricator to make the brackets will be much more cost and time efficient. Otherwise, if you want to take up welding, do invest. It's a very valuable skill.
Brackets done! Just wanted to ask whether you're planning to put in 3 point belts or original style lap belts? About to install my brackets but want to leave space for the seatbelt reel.
It was an utter dog, trust me. Also it was a 4-door which means you get tiny front doors, and I could barely get into the thing. Also, to be honest I bought it partly because it was MOT exempt, but now that exemption has been extended to all Moggies :). You're right though, it was cool. Felt very Sin City driving it at night.
@@EngineVids I sold it at the end of 2018, but I doubt it was in Sheffield, I sold it to a car trader in Bedfordshire. Black is a very common colour for those early cars.
