posting here, because this isn't so much specific to bradley, as it is a designing question... and i'm new. 
So, I have decided to modify my Bradley in the post WWII 'bomber' look.
I found a feller to due an airbrushed paintjob for me, with the rivets and lines and such, i already have whitewalls and wirespoke rims. now it is on to redoing the interior.
The biggest issue i am having, is trying to find something to make/ install for a seat. I cannot put in a classic bomber seat, they sit way to straight up.
Any suggestions on how to make a seat lok like it's from an aircraft/rat rod, but be able to lean it back enough to be able to sit in the vehicle?
Also, other suggestions for dash modifications or other 'old school' interior design tips would be helpful. I am not used to working with this much INTERIOR fiberglass. normally I sould expose the metal and paint it olive drab, but that doesn't work here. The PO already did part of the dash in aluminum, i am just going to finnish that up and go from there.
Thank You
