 WESTFALIA.  Perhaps you are giving away standard passenger middle seats,

 with the westy when it sells.  I have never seen another westy with this

J,

2-person middle benches which slide in and are equipped with seat belts for
two passengers are from 7-passenger busses. They all come with the tracks and
belts etc. I am giving away one of each.

I've had at least one listee told me NOT to give them away because he sells
them for about $150 for Westy owners who want the extra seating. These seats
are very common in my area. They are heavy and most folks have less of a need
to carry that many passenger as much as they want the space and not have to
carry the extra weight.

Yeah, I know about the Captain Kirk Seat. I have one sitting in my living
room waiting to be shipped out.
