[TR] tr-3 seats

Gary, part 2
I then wrapped it all in gauze soaked in diluted wood glue adhesive to bind it all together. 
I then put another layer of batting on top and put the seat cover over and stapled under into the bottom of the wood frame. 
They are comfortable, more firm than the springs, and infinitely less expensive. My seat backs were still in very good shape so I didn't tackle that. I don't think the backs are all that complicated. 
Please don't ask for pics as they were stored on a Dell laptop and the motherboard had a meltdown before it could be backed up. Sorry.

Listers,
Thinking ahead to re-building the seats on my tr-3 using vinyl from one of the 
big 3 vendors.  I'll be using something other than the new springs available but 
am wondering about the padding kit.  Can a person purchase the same material at 
a local fabric shop?  Or possibly simply use foam?  Has anyone re-built they're 
own seats with materials other than the hessian?
