Looking good Surley Boy - I like your seat and the 750 tank look, and I do like your efforts to preserve that valuable old bike.
For help on the seat, you might want to check out a UTube channel called Hack a Week. The guy's name is Dino Segovis and he did a excellent transformation of an old Honda VF750 Sabre into a cafe bike - including making his own foam cutter (quite simple really) his own cafe seat and a even a fuel tank all using the lost foam process.
He shows step-by-step, very clearly how to do it - and it's quite inspiring. Note: there are around 40 episodes of about 30-40 minutes each, but it is worth it. Segovis is a very good mechanic and a truly creative guy - and it's easy to get totally hooked watching him work. He does a fine job on the videos - and he avoids usual swearing and filming with some stupid music playing in the background.
Anyhow, well worth a look.
Pete
