Tom,
Thanks for the tip.  I will keep it in mind.  First I will purchase a new 
'wedge' and try it out.  I figure for a couple of bucks, it's worth a shot.

Of course, now that I can drive it, I have to buy a seat cover and some 
padding.  I'm not enjoying the sitting on springs draped in canvas that 
I've got right now.
Later, as this progresses, I'll redo the seat.  But for now a cover and pad 
should do OK.
