I moved the seat back 2 inches

 I spent some time today  with the seat base and cushions trying to find the most comfortable placement. In the end the base moved back two inches and the back reclined four inches.  The seat was always  either overstuffed or too far forward to suit me years ago when I was driving it,  so now was my chance to fix it.  I started with the base moving it back two inches to the next original rivet holes in the subrails where the wood braces rivet. This left a gap under the seat frame with no support or  way to rivet it in. So I made an extension to fill the gap and support the seat frame.  Just some sheet metal work and it's ready to prime and rivet in.
