This seat arrived repainted and recovered. The prep/paint was good so I left it, but the recovering wasn't so:
I removed the previous work, straightened the pans, and did the restoration on the padding and top as original, not glued to the pad. More info on that in this ad:
http://thecabe.com/forum/threads/mesinger-huffman-g519-saddle.85643/
The full-grain USA leather is lightly "aged/distressed", stamped as a B-60.
Only one wear tab came with the seat and I didn't have a match for it so I patina'd some of John's tabs and installed them.
As is common for these clamps, the teeth are not perfect but it does tighten up.
More pics? Questions? no trubs, send a convo.
All work comes with my "above ground" guarantee
$300 shipped insured USPS Priority with paypal payment.
$275 shipped with USPS Money Order from a Post Office
$250 cash with pickup/delivery
Thank you,
Scott Allison
