Hi guys, I’m back from a little time away from the bench and watching Indycar from St. Pete has inspired me to pull out a Monogram March kit. However, I would rather not use the included driver figure. Unfortunately, Monogram didn’t see fit to include a seat as one of the parts (I guess the driver just sits in the tub 🙄).
Did anyone make a resin seat for this kit? I checked Indycals with no luck. Not sure where else to look...

I know the Monogram is 1/24th and AMT is 1/25 but couldnt you widen and lengthen a AMT seat to fit? I dont have one handy to look.. Chris

I just checked to see if the AMT PC6 seat would fit in the tub of the March...and it won't...it's to BIG...The March tub is narrow in the hips while the PC6 is wide. It narrows down at about the knee area. I would just make a seat from .020 sheet.

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I ended up finding a seat to modify in my parts box. I think it’s from the ASA Camaro. It has a nice pleat and only took about 20 mins to modify.
