Took out stock cushions, cut 3/4" plywood panels for back & bottom, covered them with carpet, put piano hinge on front of bottom panel for tool acccess under seat. Mounting 2 curved back bar stool seats, with swivels I found at Bass- Pro Shop!
Go'nna look RACY! No alterations to the car at all,and it can be changed back to stock in 10 minutes. Keep watching, as I will be posting pictures.--Bill W.
Hi Bill,
I realize this is an old post, but I am just facing this issue now in my effort to find a Model A I can fit in. Can you tell me why the '30 coupe allows this modification, but the '29 coupe does not?
Many thanks,
Russ
