Up for auction is a set of seat bottom and seat back frames as well as retainer rings for 1956 and 1957 Corvettes.  The frames are in good condition and are ready for seat covers.

I bought these for my 1960 project.  However, when I started the re-upholstery job I found out the hard way that 1960 covers and foam cannot be mounted on 1957-1957 frames. I had been under the impression that the frames for 56-60 were the same.

A review of the Al Knock catalog indicates that the price of reproduction frames alone is over $3,000.00.  These can be had for considerably less.

Shipping cost will be determined at the time the auction ends.  I am guessing that it will be in the neighborhood of $100.

Paypal or check.  A check will hold up shipment until the funds have cleared.  If you wish to discuss any aspect of this listing you can call Ed at 609 529-8171.

Aston Martin revives Vanquish name for DBS replacement

Tue, 19 Jun 2012

Aston Martin is reviving the Vanquish name for the replacement of the DBS coupe, which will feature a full carbon-fiber body, a 565-hp V12 and a mass of engineering revisions in an effort to eclipse Ferrari's F12 Berlinetta. The Vanquish name goes back to the beefy, old-school model of 2001. Aston hopes that magic will rub off on its next flagship, a heavily revised version of the DBS made famous by its appearance in the Bond movie Casino Royale.
