Re: 32-33 closed cab seat back bracket locations
Hey David, I have pictures of the lower brackets next to a tape measurer showing their height. There were several '33-'34 trucks and cabs at a vintage truck estate auction, almost all missing their doors. It was like a five-acre vintage truck junkyard. I needed those bracket measurements for my '33 and '34 pickup projects. I also needed those brackets because the reproduction ones are not like the originals. I took a screwdriver back there and removed all of those brackets. The problem with these photos are there were '33 and '34 cabs I took photos of both and it was so long ago don't which is which. The wood looks different between the'33 and '34 since the '34 has that extra wide metal beltline across the back of the cab. I don't know if the pickup seat backs would be at the same height because they have that metal seat riser and the big trucks have the gas tank in that spot. I think that one photo with the tape measurer was the a '34 cab from the floor to the bracket but I'm not sure. Since taking the photos I have bought a '34 BB truck and a '32 pickup cab. That BB should have those brackets that I can also measure. On my '34 pickup project, the previous owner took all the wood out, I have it in all in a box. Notice the one bracket on the one cab has factory fabric behind it and the other cab does not. If I remember I'll look at my '34 BB tomorrow. Im baby-sitting the grandson so I might forget.
