bomber seat dimensions

any one have dimensions for something like the ones that geckotitan has in his model T sedan and was wondering what type of gauge steel or aluminium to use. shtuff like that.

 

some help please

 

I can't help you with dimensions but I can suggest material. I used 3003 H14 aluminum to fabricate hood panels, seat backs, belly pans and misc parts on my track roadster. I started with .063" but found it difficult to make bends. I did okay though but when I got to the hood top I got piece of .050, same grade and had more success with it.

I would suggest you buy a copy of Metal Fabricators Handbook by Ron & Sue Fournier. Barnes and Noble carries it usually. There are any number of similar books. Any or all will be helpful for you.

check out KIRKEY seats they have specs on their seats and they offer a bomber style seat as well

 

I used .080 from the drops rack at ALRO steel, have no idea now what the alloy was, and I made 'em to fit between the door, trans hump, and still fit my butt into.

 

These seats are 17" wide X 22" tall X 19" deep. They are made from .063 5052 aluminum.
