Emo, There you are, Halftanked-Hank made my day with numbers for alignment. Thank you very much Hank, that is very helpful. What books did you buy with this info?
I am glad to see recent posts by C9x. I wanted to thank him for his old posts on using a Caravan seat in an Model A roadster. I cut the legs off the bottom but left stubs and reinforced the bottom with a framework of angle iron and it fits right in there after I took off the side arms; the '29 seems to be a little narrower than the '30 C9 is building. I did not saw off the seatbelt mounts but made short angle iron mounts that attach to the big bolt on the seatbelt mounts and angle over to bolt directly through the frame. The pictures from C9x were really helpful! I plan to use the nice red velvet seat as is for a while with recovering sometime in the future.
