Default For comparaison from Mac Auto

Spring seats are expensive.....Mac Auto has them for early Ford pickups

Remember this is in USA dollars shipping not included....

Seat bottom at $479 and back rest at $469..... obviously made offshore and retailed by them and a few others....

I have seen original CMP seats rebuilt with square tubes of stiff foam inserted in each coil spring to give the old saggins feeling a boost....

New car seats are a combination of stiff serpentine flat springs supporting a molded foam overlay...... would making a simple bottom section be easier and cheaper with modern techniques as long as they are comfortable and look authentic with the canvass cover.
