Guest Krooser Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I found a decent pair of usable seats in a '49 Pontiac coupe.... I'm having a heck of a time test fitting the rear seat cushions into my hardtop... they seem too wide...I forgot to look to see if the coupe had arm rests...I pulled them myself so I know what I bought.... any ideas?

PONTIAC1953 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 (edited) hi krooser, then the rear seat you have won't fit right, you have to stay with the same body style, you can use the rear seat from a pontiac or chevy hardtop, 1950 to 1952. maybe a 1950 olds 88 two door hardtop, charles coker, 1953 pontiac tech advisor.

I'll have to see if that will give me the room I need... although I really like the armrest! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waldren Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 We had an upholstery shop Hardtop seats are shorter than coupe seats. 49 to 52 G.M seats should interchange coupe for coupe and hardtop to hardtop. Waldren Fort Myers, Fl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
