Thanks for the compliments. It really is a beautiful car.
So, one of the things on the check list was to re-bush the hinges on the passenger door. I order the parts as per a thread on the Samba. HELP! parts for a Chrysler PN38381.
Took the door off and stripped it down (going to redo the door panels to match the seats)...

Got the new hinge pin and bushings installed on the lower hinge. Worked great. The upper hinge was fine.

Then I got the newly recovered rear seat installed and the front passenger seat assembled and installed. They are beautiful. Rich and the ladies at the shop did a great job rebuilding and recovering them.

Seats are very comfortable and supportive, besides looking great! Will make the 3000+ mile round trip to the Invasion much more comfortable for Jill.
Later,
