Trying to do a DIY re-upholstry job on the split front seat from my 2-door sedan. The original cover is long gone so I don't have it for a patern. I have new patterns made, but it would really help to see a picture of the BACK of the front seat. By this I mean the part that tilts forward. I can't tell from the scraps I have how the back was seamed. If someone would be so kind, a fairly close-up pic of that part of the seat would get me out of a bind. Thanks so much for any help offered.

Get a copy of the Early Ford V8 Club's 38/39 Restoration Manual.
It has some pictures.
May help you some.
