1951 Ford Back Seat Question

We are restoring a 51 Ford convertible and do not have a back seat for it. Would the back seat from a 2dr hardtop model be the same as the convertible model? Thanks for anybody that can reply correctly on this.

I think all conv. had narrow back seats[the top cyl. mechenisums take up room on both sides of it.] ken ct. OMO
 
They are similar but the top of the backrest is different shape, the Vic sits up against package shelf, convert is straight across, I think? ..B.
 
I too have the same problem, I have a 51 I'm restoring and do not have a back seat.
I do know that the bottom part is the same from a Victoria but the back is shorter. I'm looking at seats from other year Fords as there may be something that will work. If I don't find something I will have to cut some Sedan seats down and make them fit.
If you find something that will work please keep me in mind, I don't really care if my interior is stock or not, just want something that looks nice.
