Dolly back seats in to a couch

#1 Post by 2F45T4U »

How would I do this? Have the brown rear seats out of my 1300 dolly and would like to make some sort of fram to hold the back up... Any ideas?

Scouse flat mate...

... and lad from the valleys. If they made one of those fly on the wall documentaries it would need subtitles!

So you're back to studying then? Does this mean all your mates will have to wait another term to get a look at your mean machine?

Ayup, watch it with the dodgy scouse accusations please :roll:

Actually, it's all true.

Ask Alun is he has any Dollys that are past it - like the one he cut up a while ago, and take a slice section straight through above the rear seat, giving you the seat back, seat support etc. Keep a bit of the roof if your house leaks as well. nice!

I haven't cut it up yet; i have someone interested in the shell...possibly.

David's idea is good Adam; you could then suspend it from the ceiling on two pair of chains to make a sixties style swinging couch. The boot lid would make a brilliant computer station and you could even back project the VDU images onto the inside of the rear screen

don't tell the breakers - this is such a class idea they might break up more dollys just for furniture!

Whereabouts in Toxteth. I was born in Vandyke Street, had rellys in Aspen Grove, Boswell Street and now some in Nicander Road L18. Used to go to Tyber (Tiber) Street School. Moved to St. Helens when I was a kid. Thought I'd moved to the countryside as Sherdley Park was at the back of the house :lol:
