Default Are the front seats from a 40 Tudor and Coupe the same?

I'm needing an original seat for my '40 coupe. Are the tudor and coupe front seat the same? If not, what are the differences?


Thanks!

Reggie

Believe they're the same, except the Tudor seats have foot rests.

Two coupe seats were available. Business coupes (with the rear jump seats) used the same basic split back seat as a 2-door sedan, while the 5 window used a one piece seat back that flipped flip up to access storage beneath the rear package shelf.

Reggie; Unless your doing an authentic restoration I would go for the split back seat. It's more convenient to get into the back area. I have a standard coupe with the flip up seat and unless I'm doing something wrong it's a pain to swing up and down?
