'36 Terraplane Truck Seats

I am well into restoration of my '36 Terraplane pickup, and have a question about seats. It has the original two -2-piece seats (backrest on the wall, cushion on the floor).

With the extremely rusted state of the original floor, it was not apparent how the seat cushions attached to it. Towards the back of the plywood bottom of the cushion (the wood is original), there are indentations from a previous metal bracket having been attached (see pic 01z) but those parts are long gone. The Hudson engineers were pretty clever on how they did things, especially making a pickup out of a sedan, but how the seats attach to the floor is not very intuitive.   If anyone might know how the bottom of the seat cushion attaches to the floor, it would be greatly appreciated.  I've attached a couple of images to help describe the parts. Thanks in advance!
