I left out a chapter in the V20 story:
There was this cool cat named TMcGovern ya'll might remember, I haven't seen any posts from him in a while but I think he still hangs around.
Anyhow he's 45 min south of me and I went to see him about a now infamous bench seat. I showed up to a warm welcome and he takes me in to the garage to see the seat which had a nice weather cover over it. I said I'll take it how much? He says, I don't know what do you want to give me? I felt bad to make a price on another man's stuff so I pressed back and he said $50, which was an outstanding deal for a V20 bench seat with a custom cover and welded stainless steel frame. Some of the wood in the seat is rotten but I got a lot of use out of it until the backrest broke free last summer. Now it needs a rehab which I'll eventually get around to and it will be good as new. I really lucked up on the bench seat. Those have been in pretty high demand around here in the past, ask Hammer LOL.
A nice guy, that TMcGovern fella is and I love my bench seat. Thank you!
