Default Front Seat 1931 Sant Windshield Info Request

I am reupholstering the front seat of my 1931 Slant Window Model A On the inside of the sides the steel tub there are four rivets with slots on the floor of the tub. I imagine there should be a piece of wood covering the slots and held in place by the rivets. Is this correct? Any pictures would be very helpful...Thanks in advance mike m

Can these holes be used for the seat adjustment slides? Years ago, when I did mine, my seat adjuster slides where never removed from the bottom of the seat tub. Good luck maybe someone else will chime in.

Thanks Herb. I think the slots were used to tack the upholstery around the bottom of the seat. The rivets where there to hold a tacking strip in place on each side of the seat. Just my guess. Will see if I hear any other comments Thanks for you input

Mike, you're mentioning a tack strip, I think you're right, too many years have passed since I did mine!
