    '69 TinTop

    There's one of those bolts on each wheel tub with a washer either side of the arch, then i screwed through into the floor with some self drilling screws using the holes provided. I can pull on the seat and the frame doesn't budge, it was very important to me that it was solid as my son will be...

    Panel wise its prob' an easy fix but the AA chap who recovered it seemed to think that it had wiped out the air con and theres power steering fluid every where so i guess thats fecked too, it is indeed an ST Lard and a cracking little car it's just funny how you never feel the same about a car...

    Pissed off as it's not gonna go in my favour, hit another vehicle on a roundabout who just stopped with no sign of brake lights straddeling two lanes.

    Opinions on Creative seat bed and buddy seat?

    Des, i have the recomended 18mm of flooring, maybe just me but even on that depth of floor for the seat to convert to a bed the mounting point on mine was still over an inch away from the wheel tub and the bolts supplied to fix it here were only 30mm long so had to get longer ones, as i've said...

    Opinions on Creative seat bed and buddy seat?

    Just fitted a seat bed, its a good bed but was a right pain fitting the thing! Instructions are shit regards fitting and got no help from C.E absolutely wern't interseted and said they'd call me back never heard a thing, that said it's solid now it's in thinking of getting the buddy seat too.
