Well, half a day yesterday, and most of the day today just to take the seats apart and clean up the hardware. I thought this would be simple but that has not been the case - 1/3 of the screws came out fine, 1/3 are still soaking with penetrating oil to loosen up hopefuly (and don't want to cooperate so far) and the other 1/3 need replacing or something. And those little screws that hold on the side plates, 3 out of 4 broke off requiring several hours to drill out. Hope I never have to do this again - ha. Easier to pull out the engine and trans for sure. Found 2 broken welds that will need fixing, then blasting, painting, re-assembly - hope this gets easier. In case you were wondering, the seats looked and worked fine - just had a very creative (non original) bottom cushion webbing and worn out foam. I am in seat rebuilding purgatory is seems ....
