Thanks L J, I got what you see in the pic below from Cliff, the metal parts are OEM (soft hand formable aluminun), The center roof console is fiberglass molded from OEM, The rear panel is fiberglass molded from oem my buddy gwader and I had made, The roof is 36x36 1/2 MDF board, very thin, inside is dynomat and padding. Im going to make my sun visors using the same type MDF board, then leather them up, and find similar brackets.

Looking really good Sam, what gauge sheet metal did you use to wall off everything?

yes i make seats, i got a hold of a set that was burnt and copied them hole for hole, part for part. i sell them for 800 a set. or free with a chassis purchase. they are truly worth it. you will gain 3-4 inches of head room over the standard seats (fiero or aftermarket). im building a set for total performance now, tommy has plans on making the foam for them. im not sure how much that will cost but im interested to see how they turn out. however i have been considering on not making them anymore. they cost me almost as much to make as to what i sell them for. and apparently to most the head room and the spot on look, feel, and function is not worth the extra cost over the standard seat. when i get toms seats done i will take some new pics and try to figure out how to post them. i actualy have a ton of stuff i would like to to post pics of just not sure how.

I think that Cliff from Cliffs Customs was offering OEM style seat frames for a Murci.  I've seen pictures of his welding work and it appears to be top notch.

Who was building seat frames? I recall waiting on progress updates and then the other forum went kaput.

I think that's just for the covers which for a real Lambo owner is probably chump change.  :)

Thanks for sharing.
