Went over to a couple salvage yards to see about some seats and holy smoke they think those things are worth their weight in gold.  Cmon, 2001 Escape seats for $350...no wonder they are all sitting dusty in a shed.

So I got to exploring my options and decided I can probably fix up the seats and seat tracks I have enough that they will be usable for the time being.  I certainly have other MCR necessities I need to buy that are higher on the money list than seats.  The other thing is, none of the seats at the yards have armrests...vans need armrests.

So here is the fixed up passenger seat bottom...get them cleaned up a bit and throw some new covers on there and call it good for now.  Here is the before and after...little better and the sliders at least slide now.
IFS is best kept at ambient temperature in a pile of scrap in the backyard.  When kept under a functioning vehicle, it tends to greatly diminish said vehicle's offroad ability.     -reklund5
