KEEP ON RAMMIN
Got the PPG etching primer and sealer and 2K primer.

No filler over 1/16 on truck, and only one small spot on rear door right near hinge, and driver side fender. so should not be a problem.

Received what I believe to be the only new seat covering manufactured for 1999 Dodge Ram in tan that is in existence today!

It is a shame that this NEW piece is going to be cut into panels to fix another seat.....(That is NOT a tear in the upper right hand corner,. It is cut for seatbelt and has holes where the escutcheon fastens to the fabric around belt.)

E-Bay of all places. Seller is located in a small town called Early - about 50 miles from me! Wife was just there last Saturday! Small world! I am waiting on his response to my question, "got anymore matching fabric - new in box OR used in decent condition?" If so, I plan to buy it and store for future use.

Darn thing is brand new (or old, but never used..). It is a shame to have to cut it into pieces...but....I have to have the seat fixed. When I get the old fabric back, I plan to separate panels, get an old seat from JY, and see how hard it would be to do this repair. Who knows....may help fund my addicition....

...but to be successful in such a program, first you have to admit you have a problem.....OK, easy enough......Next, you have to want to change.....aahhhh.......No, but thank you!


The REALLY hard part - the MLB season is in full swing, AND NBA Playoffs. (need to run cable to the garage...satelite radio is NOT enough!)
