Default 1A2 seat

Mike,
If I keep this up I might end up with a completely original setup, but that's probably wishful thinking. When it warms up I have to go out to the Alberta badlands to check out a cab 11 that's at the bottom of a 400 ft deep coulee. It seems that somebody drove it down there about 50 years ago and couldn't climb back to the top so they abandoned it. It'll be interesting to see what's there!
The 1A series bodies are really scarce in western Canada but the 2A series is fairly common. Apart from mine I know of 4 C8s and 1 F8 within a reasonable distance. Four of them have 2A bodies.
Bruce,
If you don't get those measurements, I'll have to draw up plans to make 2 more for my C8 so I can post them in due time. Any of the factory photos I've come across seem to have vinyl seats in the rear but the cab seats usually seem to be canvas.
