Why don't you get a fixed seat like it had originally?

I have a May 15, 1930 engine in a 1930 Cab that I believe was built late August/early Sept 1930 based on many original body features. My car actually also had the fixed seat originally, even though adjustable were offered as a new benefit in June 1930. So I believe fixed seats were common in early to mid 1930 well into August 1930 on these.

I would not want a late 1931 adjustable seat on my car if I wanted it to be original. I can reach the pedals OK so not a problem for me.
