Thanks for all of the responses guys!

Yuma, SSRJim,AChipmunk,bartamos and Denny,I really appreciate the feedback. Unless anybody doesn't think it is a good idea I will probably use Fastenal because there is one here and one real close to my friend in TN who is helping me get them packed up for shipping.

I think he also found a good solution for packing totes from home depot.

AChipmunk, a very special thanks to you! These are the very seats that you posted a craigslist link to in the "parts for sale" section a while back. I got them for $350 which I thought was pretty decent seeing how the passenger seat is very hard to find!

Denny, thanks for the picture of your Bridgeport! I have a 12x36 lathe and a mill (not as nice as yours). I'm not a machinist by any stretch of the imagination but it is sure nice to be able to fix or build parts that are no longer available.

Thanks again,

Les
