With the 1930's Troxel mens toolbox seat so hard to find, and when you do find one, you scream like a little girl at the price, I have been thinking.
My question is this... if you had the womans Troxel toolbox seat is it possible to strip it and convert the frame/shell to the length of the mens seat to the right shape and have it recovered??
It would be some simple panel work for someone with the skills.
They do look very similar at the back/toolbox area... is the only difference a shorter/longer nose?
Does anyone have one of each to do a comparison???
Anyone have a really trashed seat or just a frame that could be a candidate for extending?
I expect the hard part to this question is going to be finding someone with both the womans and mans toolbox seats in the same collection to do the comparison!!
