Technical 46 ford coupe seat swap

has anyone used a 55 ford front seat instead ? original floors ...
width seems good but sitting height may be lower

 

55 is gonna be a lot wider

 

I'd go with a Glide or Wiseguy seat

a cheaper seat would be a S10 or Ranger seat

 

'78-'87 Olds Cutlass,Pontiac Grand Prix, Chevrolet Monte Carlo or Buick Regal bench or split bench seats will fit with modified mounts and are correct width for a 46-48 Ford.
If you are going to spend serious time in the saddle-do as 40 Standard suggested and get a Glide or Wise Guys. seat These seats have modern adjustments like 'recline' and are new-not a 30 year old seat.

 

thanks team this is a budget build
and friend offered me a 55 split bench
( cant find a 46 seat in new Zealand )
hope it will fit to get the car useable

 

I have a Business Coupe seat ( not split )
