As part of its well used history, the front seat mounts, cross member, hinges etc have gone, and the back seat cross members squashed flat. The seats were sitting loose on blocks of wood. Such is the life of an old car in New Zealand.
I've worked out how the back cross members should go, but I am in the dark as to the detail of the seat mountings. I believe that the seats should be adjustable (they certainly were when I bought it) but all I have are a line of holes on each side of the seat frame.
Would anyone have details or perhaps photos that could help me please. I would prefer photos of the driver's side as that would also show a little of how the battery wires go through the floor.
Any assistance would be gratefully received.
Hi Graham 123. I marked out the remnants of the spot weld points to get the positions. The vertical part of the rear cross beams are 18 1/4 inches from the step in the floor pan to the back seat. The front and rear cross beams are 9 inches apart. I have attached a photo of what was left of the best of my back cross beams. It is a view taken of the bottom of the passenger's one, some is missing on the right where it had connected to the car body by the door. The holes along the bottom flange were where the spot welds broke or were drilled out. I hope this helps.
