Here’s a quick drawing for some aluminum bomber seats.
These are made from .090″ 5052-H32 Aluminum.
Use the construction lines on the drawing to note where the sides and back roll up. Roll up the edges with a 2″ radius; roll the back up with a 3″ radius to about 60degrees. After you roll the back up, the sides should overlap; rivet them together.
You’re on your own with mounting them into whatever deathtrap /hot rod you’re building.

Contact me if you’re interested. I’ll need to customize the inscription for you.
I could also sell you just the .stl model if you know someone who has a printer or if you want it made out of something fancy. Shapeways offers polished Gooooold if you’re looking to spend a few grand!
