Not out of boredom) - Toyota Sprinter Trueno, 1.5 L, 1985

The first part of this entry has already been published on the nth resource. And now - with a continuation.

Sunday afternoon, what would a girl do? Some would go for a walk, take a bath, get a manicure, or flip through a fashion magazine. What is Tiger doing? That's right, chicks the seats from his car.

Not out of boredom - Toyota Sprinter Trueno 15 L 1985
I prepared the workplace: I washed the floor, collected the tools available at home: several screwdrivers, flat and cruciform, a set of a young technician, in which, in addition to screwdriver tips, with a universal handle, there is also a knob and heads of different sizes; pliers, wire cutters, heavy duty scissors and a pair of blades. I started with the driver's license, because it is torn stronger. I ripped open the seam in the middle of the back with a blade, it is almost torn anyway, but it makes the job easier.

Using a screwdriver, I pulled out the dermantin from under the headrest clips. Further - more interesting. The upholstery, together with foam rubber, is attached to each other and to the seat with almost thirty wire rings. At first she patiently unwound each one and put it neatly in a box, then I got bored.

Che we, there is not enough wire at home, or what? )) Nippers and pliers were used to remove this metal "debris".

Then, it's time to tighten the nuts, well, more precisely, on the contrary - to unscrew. First I unscrewed the side plastic panels, then the back from the seat, and then the mobile "rail". By the way, I found out why the driver’s driver didn’t follow the rail completely: someone very clever put a piece of iron, in the shape of a tiny rectangle, into the rail mouth. He could not be seen "outside".
It was possible to break the bolt of the driver's seat only on the third attempt, and then, I had to resort to male power;). But someone has already removed the passenger's seat, because the bolt will not even be turned to the end ... who is there a fan of skating with me? ;)
Another couple of bites with wire cutters, and you can try to shoot. She pulled the "skin" over the top, carefully removing the clips that secure the headrests. Long, difficult ... Dirty cursing, I still defeated them! Next, I unhooked the springs and latches from the foam rubber and received four components of the original objects - "covers" made of dermantine and rags, pieces of foam rubber "in shape" like Pop and type Backs, iron frames and a bunch of garbage, rust and petrified peanuts

She herself is still a beauty :)

I washed the frames, wiped them dry, stood on a newspaper, next to them were several “hide papers” ... She transferred the patterns
from the resulting pieces onto a black velor cloth. True, the velor is not automobile, but I hope these chairs will last a couple of years.
The color was chosen long ago: black base and yellow-orange large seams; the drawing is also embroidered with yellow-orange threads. Kant is in tune.
Working from home is combined with working in the garage. I sanded the frames (I really wanted to sandblast them, but it didn't work out),

almost as good as new.
She took the old ones. No, I washed them, of course, blew them with air, dried them.
Passenger pulled just as it was.
And I wanted to make my chair a little more comfortable. Cut out to shape and glued pieces of foam rubber on the sides of the seat and back - for lateral support; and made a roller under my lower back (my back is weak :(). While I was pulling it, I thanked myself ten times for giving up the skin because of the complexity and price tag. It
turned out to be neat brand new black seats that I really like.

Then they will change only for buckets :)

PS: this is how the wall with stickers looks like (see comment # 3). Remnants of luxury)

kapets) I don’t even know how to help you here) I have my first car and immediately injection, and before that I had no business with cars, even though this is my specialty - this is our original education in Russia.
The carburetor is, of course, an understandable thing for me, but you need practice in handling it ... as an athlete, this is clear to you)
And if you put a mono injector and brains to it?

Belonging to the feline is a tribute to the nickname in the automotive world of Novosib)

registered. But I don't like Drome. As well as most of Novosib's autoforums. I don't have enough time to be an active forum member. I even write on our team site, only if it's completely on the case). And so, and on the drome and on the auto-brotherhood on the autolife, etc. - everywhere either TIGER, or derivatives of this name :)
I already had a capital. Coming to replace the jets and adjust the carburetor, overflow, infection :(

Katya good evening) Well, at least I can guess by the nickname, but you only have to belong to the feline, and the saints)

nick-nick is Kolya-Kolya)

Now we have met) Next time you decide to overhaul the engine at home or to overhaul the gearbox at speed, or something else that is not very clean to do, you call me to help, good)))
Well, I'm so ... I'm not imposing, but to help ... if suddenly yes if only)))

This is just a tiny piece) before everything was kept on the shelf: cups / badges / posters. Now almost everything has been removed, there are only stickers like "Tatyshev" and start numbers from Barnaul and Novokuznetsk :) (added the corresponding photo to the post)

The pumping car is resting! Well done! ))))) I liked the sixth photo with paws) And the last one)

Tell me what your name is, otherwise it is inconvenient not to address by name)

On the wall I noticed the attributes of motorsport, which you already understand is not indifferent)
From me 10 points for handicrafts and 15 for the design of the seats! )

well, they took it off and put it back, of course, with dad. In the process of disassembly and assembly, help was required only once - to unscrew the nut that holds the "rail" and the driver's seat seat. She "got used to it" and was too tightly tightened. Everything else is by itself. And she skinned herself and painted the frames. And she pulled on the finished covers, secured with clamps and rings - also herself.

Dad said: you want to - you do :)

Legat 24.12.20

Ooh ... you really did it all yourself? And nobody helped you? How did you manage to remove the seats? And even disassemble them? The man helped you 100%.

Duc look for a bucket bucket, I think to find a real before 10. Just a bucket and an anatomical seat (what you showed me) are completely different things and how do you understand the bucket holds much better!

S
SanTigras 24.12.20

heh) it's easier for me to put someone's thread into labor) to find within 10 thousand and rejoice in happiness)

D
DadeMerphy 24.12.20

Wow, it's easier to buy Sparko Evo or Pro2000 ...
And besides, these are not buckets ... that's the price quite acceptable and the seat seems to be normal www.bestuning.ru/goods.php?id=4104

S
SanTigras 24.12.20

these are www.bestuning.ru/descr.php?id=4099
and the price ranges from 50 to 70 thousand per chair. :( the range of prices depends on whether it is a fake Chinese or an original :)

Damn, what can I say, I know not by hearsay what kind of work it is, at the expense of sewing a woman can do better, but the assembly is disassembling, Clever, in short, Truenke was lucky with the mistress.
