This has the handle in the middle of the front seat. It may have been used only on the A-400 as they are all late 1931's. I need to get it to slide off the track. I restored the car myself about 25 years ago and I don't remember how I got it on the sliding track. The seat needs to be removed in order to have the leather sewed again. I sure don't feel like raising the body and removing the splash apron in order to remove the nuts from the side of the seat bracket as the bolts under the body may be carriage bolts which are turning. I removed the handle and also the large spring from the rear but it still won't come loose from the track. I know that it must slide off somehow, because the floor pan is black and the track is Bronson Yellow.
Any help would be appreciated.
