A friend just bought a 31 Vicky. Someone the other day said that the seats in it were out of a Tudor. The Vicky seats were much wider. Is this correct?

Well, to begin with, the Vicky seats & the Tudor seats are different; different frames, and mounting hardware. Then, the Victoria seats are different widths between the driver's seat & the passenger's seat. The seat frame in the photo on the left is for a late style Victoria, the one on the right is from a Tudor.

Thanks for the information. We looked at the car and measured the seat width. The driver side is almost 1 inch wider than the passenger side. The drivers side also has an adjustment thing.

One expert around here does need some training before he offers his expert opinion.

Vern, I was under the impression that the Vicky and Deluxe Tudor used the same front seats.
