Re: 40 deluxe seats

The book I referred to was "the 1940 Ford book". Sound like the front seat is correct but the rear is not. Should the rear have a carpet kick on the lower front on the rear seat? Thanks

My 40 deluxe had one hand grab and I believe it was on the drivers side. If it were installed on the passenger side it would cover the light switch for the courtesy lamps. Both sides...
