Thought so too Mike but had a (nice) chat with him last nite and was informed he was just doing the C series seat.  The one I have on this 1055 is a two piece cushion borrowed off a 1257 and its the same seat on my 857. Doesn't look like the same pan as what's on yours or if it is yours is not a two piece anymore. The back rest is mounted on a pan separate from the seat cushion..

Not everyone's cup o tea I know ....I have no idea why I went this route ..Prolly cause Dan went dumpster diving at his work and  gave me a slew of fasteners that are yellow zinc plated that I was using and it just kinda took off from there. Most of the hardware store bought  hardware is grade 8 to keep with the motif.  Also I had a really sharp 1980 Ford F-150 stepside in my younger days that was black with gold detail & pinstripes. This reminds me of that. I stick this thing in the dirt and get her muddy I don't think it's gonna show as much. Some of the tractor shows we go to they come back covered in dust.
