I want to give you guys a little back ground information on my seats for the Duck. They are real 73 year old B25 bomber seats. The seats used in B25s during WWII were made out of 1/2'' plate steel to provide the only form of armor in those planes. They weren't ergonomic at all and were quite a pain to get in and out of. Once the war was over, they decided to install this seat design as a fix for the armored seats. Almost all of the B25s that still fly today have these exact seats. By doing research and hunting, I scored a set for the Duck.

So FREAKING cool!

Yup...I'll second that!

Awesome find with those seats!
And I'm excited to see the ecoboost come alive, I'm such a fan of this relatively new motor, the aftermarket support is coming alive and soon we'll start seeing some impressive results from these small motors

Thanks, If some guy would hurry up and get the body done we all could see that ecoboost come alive...haha

I am excited to get it on the road. the car should be about a 5:1 weight to power ratio. If I put wings on it, she might fly
