Default Fiberglass seat shell

Anyone ever had a problem with the fiberglass Drivers seat becoming weak/cracked at the joint where the bottom meets the back? Epoxy resin for repair? The backrest is bending back and it looks like the fiberglassed shell is all that supports the backrest

    This question gets asked occasionally and yes others have had that problem. You dont have much choice other than repair it because finding a replacement seat is very difficult.

    Thanks, that’s what I figured, I’ve done some fiberglassing so a repair is in order
