Adjustable front seat

[mccsix]

My '28 Tudor has what I think is an old after market accy that allows you to move the seat fore and aft...kind of HD clunky but it works. Anybody seen one of these?

Yep I installed one a few years ago, new from one of the suppliers “Synders “ I think, need to get one for the passenger side so when I’am riding I can get in !

I got one from a scrap yard for ten bucks out of one of GM cars late 80s narrowed it for
my Tudor, welded on a couple of brackets and shortend it. It works great, just reach
down, pull the lever up and back and forth about 5 in. And the height is the same as
original. I think the car was a Saturn. And the seat still tips up.

Do you have any pictures of your setup you'd like to share?

Interesting. I have a 28 Tudor, and have the 1 1/2" brackets that allow the seat to be moved back. Those alone were a huge difference. I'm 6'3" and have a 38" inseam.

Gene, if you are 6'3" you must have lucked out and got one of those special 'stretch body' Tudors that Edsel designed and Henry smashed. You got the one Henry didn't know about!


My son is 6'4" and he can get in but can't lift the leg to put on the brakes. Now he does not want to inherit the car.
