Is the back of the front seat spring covered befor it is installed in a rumble seat car ?
Thank you,

Mine is not but maybe that is not the way it should be.

What kind of vehicle are you inquiring about, coupe, roadster, cabriolet? Coupes have a hardboard panel tacked onto the wood seatback frame. I am not sure a about a roadster, as they don't have a wooden frame on the seatback springs. The picture is of my 28 special coupe's seatback after I tacked the hardboard panel from Classtique on the wood frame I made.

When a person ordered the interior kit from most kit makers, they included the precut side and front seat back panel cards and some material to cover them with. The originals were made from cardboard material that has the color and grain embossed on each panel. Classtique and maybe Dixie are the only kit makers out there for now.

A person can get the vinyl material and the chip board and fabricate their own but a pattern would have to be made for the side panels. Some folks use thin Masonite instead of chip board. If a person is good with fiberglass, they could lay them out and maybe even find a way to get a leather type grain on the surface then paint them the proper color.
