Nice,

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 |

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 |
