    Hi all,

    I’m thinking about upgrading the bench seat that is in my Ford Model A Pickup.

    I have no idea where the current seat came from or what it is, so I thought I’d see what any consensus here might be.

    These are images of said seat back frame without it’s vinyl cover and of course without the “custom” vinyl covered wooden seat base that it came with.

    School bus, the sheet metal is designed to give way if it's hit really hard from the back. Likely had a one peace foam to cover front and back with the thicker section on the back side. The lower front should have a piece of wood screwed to it from the back to staple the vinyl cover too. Typical bus seats are 39" wide.

    Parked my **** in one of those for many-a-mile! A few bricks & some black/green/gray/brown pleather, it'll be just like new!
