Not my seat but it sure looks kool.

I know this guy isnt a site sponcer but he has lots of good pictures to show you what it would look like.

I contacted him several years ago about doing the alligator thing on my seat due to his popularity with this material and his workmanship.

Seat cost $2500

Al-Bob quoted me almost $500 just to put gel-pads in an existing solo seat. I said adios!!!
I wonder how that guy's still in business with his ridiculously high pricing?:loony:

CRAP!!

wow, are you sure he didn't mishear you and think you wanted mink lined with gold?

I don't know how he does it but I'd sure like his connections on exotics.

Time for Seatmaker to chime in... :2thumbs:

Wow Ray! That is pricey. I know one of our site guys can do it cheaper and just as well. I merely posted his link because he had some great pictures that illustrate how the finished product would look.

Thanks for the lead. We'll see what he says. A lot I think worry about someone taking away from there business. Don't know why, there's plenty to go around.

I got a quote from Bob and it was f-ing stupid the money he wanted. I went with seatmaker and it looks awesome.

Seatmaker made mine and I really like it.....its not real Gator but it looks great.

I found a guy in LA who has Croc skins for sale for around 250 per skin...includes the tail etc....maybe we can but the skin from him and get Seatmaker to cut and apply...? I will look for his Website and forward it...

Looks like a good find. I think I'll pick up a gator for my own and check it out. I have no problem of anyone supplying there own material, especially if it's one of color. thanks

hey seat, we got an 11' gator down here stuck in a storm drain if you don't mind doing your own tanning and dying. critter management is having a hell of a time gettin' him out. for some reason, he's kinda pissed off.

 

[Raywood]

This was the seat I inquired about a few years ago (when I was making more money!!! ). But he wanted an awful amount for it considering it's patched pieces of hide attached to cowhide. Nice seat though.

 

[bobby bigdog]

I can't believe 2500 for a seat. I talked to him the other day and he said he would make me a custom solo sidebag for about $200 if i wanted gator it would be about $400 to $500

He also said he would give me real good deal to do gator seat,tool bag,solo sidebag. Just thinking about seat. I am sure i am going to do tool bag and sidebag becuase we all know haul shit around is hard to do.
