Rat rod drag car

[Hillbilly Deluxe]

Hey Guys

I am building a rat rod drag car (kind of) and I was wondering about...

Interior door panels in or out,it is a topless car so the doors can be welded shut and the driver could jump in "Dukes of Hazzard" style.

What kind of seat or seats should I use?

Thanks

John

Granted its pretty tacky in the real world, but use a mexican blanket covering a drag seat..never saw one before in a model!

Single seat or bench seat with a lap belt?

If its a drag car..strictly, i would use 1 racing seat. wrap it in a mexican blanket..or stripe material from a craft shop. Takes some looking to find small print stripes in multi-colors but it is worth it!

I'm also thinking of building a 1/25th scale "Rat Rod". I once saw somebody offering scale "mexican blankets". Do you know if they are available?Thanks Frankie B.

What about one of the seats from the Revell Willys Gasser kit ?
