Technical Bucket seats in a Model A Coupe

I would look into some of the bucket seats from late model trucks that have built in shoulder harnesses (sorry I can't be more specific). Probably going to be too big but I sure like the idea of built in shoulder harnesses.

Here you go. They fit very well, they're comfortable, they're very sturdy, and the price is fantastic. You can't have an old seat recovered for less than this. And they come with the sliders.

Hi Denis ,,,what breed are your door locks/latches ?

 

Six year old post. Guys still around so maybe he's still looking.

 

They are genuine 1928-1929 Ford and so are the window regulators.

 

Thread was revived yesterday by a newbie with similar issue, and has produced additional useful information.

I went with school bus seat, which is mentioned earlier in the thread. They are very easy to resize. But obviously not buckets. The Northern Tool seats posted by @Blues4U look like an interesting lowbuck solution. I'd be curious to see a pic of what they actually look like installed in a car. I've seen guys use similar boat seats with mixed results.

 

Early mustang.....

 

Dodge van, motorhome buckets have tapered seat bottoms that fit the body shape of 19 30's and 40's bodies

 

I just went out and lifted the tarp enough to crack open the door and snap a photo. Forgive the messiness. This is a 31 closed cab pickup. It is critical to get a seat that fits well in these pickups, you don't have any spare space to lose. These are actually the 3rd pair of seats I installed, and they fit the best. I used Speedway riser, cut down 2" in front and 3" in back to give it some tilt back.

 

Thanks for providing the picture, @Blues4U. That looks to be a pretty nice $200 solution.
