A 'steel top' or 'indented firewall' have no bearing on your questions. Any mid-1930 to 1931 pickup will be a good analog.

My late-1930 pickup does not have a steel panel behind the seat back, other than the cab body itself (which does not touch the seat springs). There are some wood slats that support the seat back spring. Bob C posted a photo of the seat riser, and that one looks right.

BTW: The pickups used a painted high carbon steel cowl band. The stainless versions were used on cars, and very rare deluxe commercial vehicles. For many decades it was VERY common for folks to put car stainless cowl bands, and car stainless headlight buckets, and car stainless radiator shells, and car stainless tail light buckets on the trucks.

It still is common!
