    How soon do you need the seatback? I am upgrading my M1008 bench seat with 2 bucket seats very very soon. The bottom is shot but the back in in very nice shape.

    I am referring to the USA and W601416 under it in large white letters. Maybe Dave could put some thing similar to it on your K-18. Also what is mounted above the windshield on both sides? Antennas or mirrors? It's hard to tell. ( In the newspaper photo)

    Did you notice the markings on the passenger side of the hood of the K-18 in the newspaper?
