Technical Seats for a Model A

I have done about 12000 miles in my roadster this year.. Seats are Bomber B17 1939..

 

Very well engineered interior. I love the how cowl steering allows the driver to sit low in the car. Sweet!

 

Those look a lot like the ones I tried in my pickup. I loved the seats, they feel great; but I hated the lost leg & head room. Too thick. You have a little more room in your coupe, I'm glad they worked well for you. They look good.

 

Bump. Needing to redesign the ones in my roadster.

 

1996 Toyota Previa DX rear seat. It slides and folds: slides forward 5”, folds forward to 45 degrees and fully reclines. Fits perfect in my 29 and provides easy access behind seat.

 

Thanks for the info, they’re really nice. Did you have them reupholstered ?

 

Yes. I reshaped the foam and had new covers made from marine vinyl.

 

Ended up using seats out of a Mini Cooper, just fit, gives good support. IMHO, more comfortable than a Caravan seat

 

Pretty sure that is a Jeep Wrangler YJ, '87-'95, rear fold and tumble seat. I had one for a little while. The Jeep rear floors are flat so the mounts should be easy to adapt to a Model A. I believe there is also a fixed rear seat with the same dimensions on the lower optioned models.

 

Used a 90's Caravan seat in mine. Cut 6 inches out of the middle and made a platform that it mounts to out of 1" x 1" tubing. Did my own upholstery for the first time.. The back also folds down. Have space to stash things underneath and its comfortable enough for most cruising. I'm 6 feet tall and fit pretty well even with the top up.

 

mine folds flat and will also roll forward
