And is willing to give me tips. I am currently starting to draw up a template for a one piece, two up seat, with pleated vinyl. I recal seeing one someone did somwhere on this board, but cant seem to find it. If anybody has made a seat, any tips would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hey guys! Who was it around here that made that really cool two-up "Cobra-style" tuck & roll seat a while back? I think he's an Aussie, isn't he?...though I could be wrong about that.
Because, from the sound of it, I think the seat Danny is thinkin' of making sure sounds a lot like that one, and whoever that is could probably help give Danny some pointers here.
(...btw, I tried the Search function to find it, but I had no luck)
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Are you thinking of Kits (LKR). He has an interesting seat.
I thought I had a photo of it, but I can't find it.

Found it, Brent! Going through LKR's posts I discovered who it was...Hoffo.  Here ya go, Danny..... http://www.bonnevilleamerica.com/forums/...rt=all&vc=1The only problem is that it's been just about a year since Hoffo has posted anything around here, so he might be kinda hard to get a hold of, just in case you wanted to ask him any additional questions about his seat.
