Thanks, the big question is how it looks once it is installed. I am hoping I'll have it in by next weekend

Got it loaded up and on the boat. Because I am putting down a teak and holly floor I had to replace the port hatch cover to make it "flat" for the teak plywood. I still have to add some supports and trim that was removed for transport but so far it looks like it isn't a complete waste of time and kind of looks "factory"

It just fit in the truck

Looks good and its functional. I like it. Be sure to post more pictures when you have the floor done and the cushions in place.

Nice job.

Cool Doug! It looks so period correct too. Nice work.

I'm looking for a 72 inch sleeper sofa for that spot. Remembering the ones that came from the factory gives me nightmares in plaid. I was thinking something a little more modern and durable than the original.

What types of ideas have you had for upholstery?

Very cool! Fits like a glove, and still open the hatch. I love it!

And GameBoy compliant as well!

Really nice job, I like the design of your bench seat and would use it If I did not need a pullout sofa... 3 kids. Although I guess their is still plenty of room for a blow up on the floor

I have included a pic of the floor in my F32, good luck with the rest of the work!
