34 Fordor rear seat

34 FORDOR

Senior Member
Would like some help from 34 owners please. I have a 34 Fordor which is missing the back rest of the rear seat. ( I have the base and is ok ) I have bought a new back rest spring, but not sure if it needs a frame or how it attaches to the body. There appears to be 2 hinge like fittings on the floor and a clip on the rear of the body. Some photos of a seat and fittings would be real helpful.
 
This is late 33 mohair - NOS but is the same as you need as far as framework etc . Early 33's have the catch offset .

There is a wooden frame that attaches to the spring. In the center back of the fordor is a pin and that fits into a pocket in this wooden frame. I noticed this pin is not in the same spot on 33 as compared to a 34. I haven't looked close enough to see how it ties into the floor area or how the springs are attached to the wood. I think it is the same on a tudor as a fordor.
 
Thank you David J and Gearhead1952. The photos are a real help, should be able to make up my own frame , it looks to be fairly basic.
