Re: Question about Vicky front seat removal
Marshall
The picture is of the late 1931 (June on) Victoria sliding driver's seat that Arlyn Bieber restored for fine point judging. The late 1931 seats were made from 4 pieces of oak with a opening in the middle. The early style seats with front pivots had a solid plywood bottom with 9 holes drilled it it. See the picture of the bottom of my early steel back Victoria's drivers seat. I am almost certain that the metal support should be there. I am not sure how the upholstery was fastened around the metal supports. The October 2000 Bustle (V15-I4) has some information on the late front seats.
