Correct seat attachment
 

What is the proper seat back attachment for a 30 coupe? My seat is backed by plywood which is screwed to the wood frame between the trunk and passenger compartment. A picture would be helpful if there is one handy.

Re: Correct seat attachment for Coupe back
 

I also have the same question for my 30 coupe with a trunk - mine is naked in the back. I also have nothing on the sides - sheet metal was used originally attached to the brackets?


Thanks

Mark

Re: Correct seat attachment
 

You need to specify whether your cars are June 1930 or earlier or July 1930 or later.

Up to June 1930 :
- Fixed front seat
- Separate seat back riser
- Angled floor pan in rumble area
- Wide package tray

After June 1930
- Adjustable front seat
- Front seat cushion and backrest mounted to a carriage which moves back/forth on the seat base
- Flat floor pan in rumble area
- Narrow package tray

In my case - after June 1930, motor has a May date.

Not sure what the term package tray defines however. Here is a pic of my trunk area as reference.

Its on my to do list to clean up the trunk, and found Old Man and A Kids thread looking for this same thing. The piece of cardboard was just stapled to the back and has since come loose and been removed.

Since posting and further digging in the Archives I found this thread that answers the material for the back of the seat.
