Re: 68A seat base

What material and Color would the edge binding be for a 1930 fixed seat Cabriolet ? I am thinking that I might use the same brown simulated leather binding that LB-B supplies to finish the T14-GT top. How did you laminate the muslin to the fabric ? Spray glue ? Did you laminate the whole fabric side piece before sewing together with the cushion top material ? I guess that it is futile to do this after I receive the kit from LB-B, as I would want the muslin to be stitched together with the fabric at the seam with the cushion top cover and go all the way down to where the sides are tacked to the frame ? |

Re: 68A seat base
Just a confirmation on the seat base, I received my seat springs fron Snyders and the bottom spring set nicely, almost perfectly, fits the lower base I built.
I guess I have an extra wood base of uncertain origin for a sliding seat! It would appear to be for an adjustible seat that did not have a "skirt" around the back sides. did all the sedan versions have the skirt feature? Thanks again to all for the input to this discussion. |

Re: 68A seat base
Russ,
As I said in the post above, your frame resembles the frame on the 160-C, so I am speculating that this could be a frame that would fit all Slant Windshield models, or perhaps all the models with the metal base carrier assembly ? I will try to remember to check the dimensions next time I go to my friends garage, or perhaps if he sees this post, he might answer. |

Re: 68A seat base
Russ, As I said before, I'm making these same seat parts for my Town Sedan. and the top piece is so far gone that I can't get any dimensions from it. I did get the width of the front piece (38" X 2 7/8") and I have the width of the side pieces (3 5/8") What I need is the width and location of the center piece and the length of the side pieces and the length and width and location of the rear piece. The holes (3/4") at the front are for the pegs/ studs/lugs that locate the top frame to the bottom frame. Thanks i advance!

Re: 68A seat base
I intended to post this a couple weeks ago as a point of interest applicable to the subject at hand.
