How to install seats in an Austin Healey Sprite Mk1 Bugeye Build Episode 53

[@clarkmarkey1498]

This job is one I've done before. From experience, tighten, no snug the front bolts or nuts first. Slide the frame back and forth over the tracks then tie down the rear fasteners followed by tightening the fronts. That assures the smoothest operation of the slides. For such a simple design, they require a bit of fiddling.

Thanks for this Clark. I'll use this process when the seats go back in for good.

Yeah with the foam it really puts some flesh on the old bones. Eagerly awaiting the next installment.

Thanks Ken. It feels really good putting things back on the car... even if it's just a trial fit.

Great timing Ian I’m ready to fit my seats, still really enjoying your vids

Thanks Phil, glad you're enjoying them.

Looking good! I like the oak rails. They should last well.

[@EconoboxGarage]

Thanks Gareth. The plan is to get some kind of finish on the rails to help preserve them.

Grab that steering wheel and make some vroom vroom sounds already.

I have to be honest, I did consider it!
