Not sure if you're interested, but I sewed my small tear.  If I can scrounge a pic I'll try to send it later.  By no means is it show quality, but it has kept and hasn't gotten any worse, pluse it closed it up and looks much better!

hey rad!
thanks for the reply but since then i have found several places that are rotted in the seam so naturally i had to replace the seat. oh well, i guess we can't win um all. one consolation is that the top is mint. thanks mike in tn
