Wow! I'm going to go rip all the upholstery out of the 10 seats I've got
laying around. Maybe I'll be as lucky.

Subject: strange findings in roadsters.
A local customer 10 years ago bought a very tired 69 2000 from a shady
guy. The car was rusted, bent and modified. It came with MGB seats. When
Randy went to pick up the car, the previous owner made him take all the
spares out of the garage as he was finished with datsun roadsters. In
the pile of debris were the original; seats from the car. tattered and
torn, Randy really did not want them. All or nothing was the deal. Randy
loaded up all the parts and car and piled them into his garage. He then
proceeded to start the restoration of a very rusty( frame replaced),
banged up roadster. He did a beautiful job. Time came to redo the MGB
seats or the roadster seats. I convinced him that the roadster seats
were the way to go. He called me up one day to thank me for keeping the
original seats: tucked away in the folds of the original seats was a wad
of bills: $635!!!!!. he recovered the seats and had a little left over
to spend on his roach turned roadster.
