34 coupe seat slider latch
I am finally putting the correct seat in my 34 3w, and I can not find the latch/lock thingy that mounts to the floor. I had one...I know what it looks like...but its missing in my mess. I have the saw toothed thing for the seat frame, but not the latch for the floor and if one of you guys has the time and the part, please post a pic and some basic dimensions so I can make one. Its under the seat, no one will know except us! Thanks !

Re: 34 coupe seat slider latch
This part is visible by just lifting out the bottom seat cushion. I believe there are different latch mechanisms between the 33 and 34, mine is possibly the 33 style as its a body out of Canada, none the less, its the "saw tooth" style I have.
Its a L shaped bracket, bolts to the floor, with a key hole shaped hole to allow you to move the seat to a different saw tooth notch. I'll make it, but I need to know....the vertical end of the L shaped bracket faces towards the front of the car, or the rear. And, how far from a bolt hole to the vertical bend. This would be critical to have the seat travel the distance that Henry intended it to. I believe the 4 door models used the same mechanism. Anybody? |

Re: 34 coupe seat slider latch
I will add, if you have a curvy chrome handle , like the door handles, you have my style.
If you have a plain steel lever, thats the other type, I've had both |

Re: 34 coupe seat slider latch
Yes there are two different styles due to two Mfg for Ford. The floor mount photos below one is 32 which I believe is very similar to 34. It appears the floor mount adjuster lost favor with Ford and for 35-36 the seat mount was used and went through some changes.

Re: 34 coupe seat slider latch
You asked for some basic dimensions. Here they are, taken with a caliper.
This bracket is from my '34 coupe. Notice that the base of this floor bracket is angled. Should it be straight? -Mike |
