hello, I recently picked up a set of 4 kai kristiansen # 42 chairs that are in need of a lot of TLC...as I was taking them apart I discovered that one of the metal parts from the swivel back (thats supposed to be buried under the upholstery) is missing. it basically makes this chair useless...I know that is a long shot but does anyone have this part to sell or a chair in bad shape that I could take this from? fingers crossed!!! thanks Kevin
