Re: [T3] Rusty Seats!

<x-flowed>Pounding on 2X4 wedged up on the frame does sound better!  Likewise, 
destroying the seat sounds preferrable to destroying the pan!  I did get the 
seatbacks tilted, which gives better access to the rear!  I'm cutting up a 
2x6 but havn't pounded on it yet.  Thanks guys for the help!
