Default Clips needing to be identified

I have a pair of clips that I am not sure what they fit. I have had them many years and can't remember where I got them. I was hoping they were for a 28/29 pickup (bottom seatback brackets) but the holes don't line up with the ones in the seatback slats. I need seat clips for the bottom of a 28/29 CCPU backrest. I have a feeling the brackets in the picture might be for the top of the rear seat for a 28/29 tudor. Also, they look bent to me - are they? If someone would kindly identify them, I would appreciate it.

Paul,

Is your "??" a good guess or a shot in the dark?

I made my own clips for my 1930 Tudor two years ago,with measurements taken from an unrestored back seat frame. Grant

Thanks, Grant. I appreciate you taking time to post a response. Do you know if they look right or are bent?

Rusty, I have also seen these at the top of pick up seat back wooden rail, just under the rear window. I have seen 2 and three used to hold up the top of the back seat cushion.

WRNDLN: The bends look very correct. I had to adjust mine twice to get them to slip into the body clips located in the back inside rail where the back seat cuishen hangs . On the '30 there are two flat clips on the bottom of the frame that bolts to the body clips. I imagine the 28-29 are the same.Grant.

Rusty, see my picture in post #3 on my 2-23-29 Tudor rear seat back clips. Mine also has the slots, as it was built during the changeover period.

Tom,
Thanks for posting the link to the picture you posted sometime back. I guess that pretty much ices it - they are definitely 28/29 tudor upper rear seatback clips. I don't need them as I don't have a tudor, but it is nice to know what they are for, if someone needs an original set.
