The Spliffey Hinge
Working on armrest in the '35. The original '97 seats are raised 50mm, making the already poor center armrest impossible to use without a pad under your arm. The armrest was also cracking near midpoint from hitting the false wall behind it.
My friend Doc dubbed this 'The Spliffey Hinge'...
A High-Tech Hillbilly creation.
