[QUOTE="squareweave, post: 428385, member: 3886"] Thanks for the kind words. I like original parts so I was lucky enough to buy a very complete (but rusty) original Clipper van. So what I did was used the cover, padding and springs from my vans original seat and use the frame from the clipper seat , that I also got the jail bars from. I have grown to dislike repro crap parts as I have gotten a bit older and would rather restore original over the using garbage. To me its all in the details. I was quite lucky that my original seat was in storage in the garage its whole life making the vinyl soft and easy to remove without breaking anything. As far as the end caps go, they are NOS.
