Broken Seatback Hinge

[dreamline]

The drivers side seat back frame is broken just above the hinge (this would be on the right side of the drivers seat back) and I can't seem to locate a source for an intact frame. This is in a '64 SS bucket.
Has anyone else had this problem? Any good ideas?
Thanks,
Dan

Any ideas..... Stop those 6,000 rpm power shifts on that 425 H.P. monster:

Why don't you have it welded if you can't do it yourself?

I'm not positive that a butt weld would hold up - I could reinforce it, but it's extreemly close to the hinge hole. I'd like to find a new frame if possible. It probably isn't that common of a problem if no one here has experienced it and/or the aftermarket hasn't addressed it.

dreamline-

Never heard of that problem but if properly welded. it would be stronger in that area than the metal itself.
