    I had 2 1969 AMX reclining bucket seats in my 40 sedan, they worked out well. Most any small car seats will work, you'll need to build a base to get the height you need. Also make sure they flip forword to access the rear area.

    I would go with a big old bench seat, they feel like sitting at home on the couch. May as well cruise in style and comfort!!!!:cool:

    I would figure that 39 Ford seats would fit best in a 39 Ford...

    Minivan seats fit real good. Give you the right height when compared to the original seat height. Get the lowback buckets and new roll & pleat covers and they look OK.

    I put a set of 99 Dodge Intrepid buckets in mine. Fit nice and very comfortable with drivers power.

    64 Galaxie XL buckets fit nice, are comfy and the drivers seat is power! 64 T Bird seats are the same. Works well if you are looking for a 60's vibe!

    s10 pickup seat 82 - 92? works well in the front and rear of my 40 wagon..

    based on what I can tell the same would hold true for a coupe..

    I just removed a pair of these from my '40 coupe - they look so street roddish:eek: - replaced them with a stock split bench and regular seat belts - now it looks like a hot rod.:cool:
