The Model A Ford, Henry and That Era: 1932 FORD MILLER HAULER SPECIAL ~ PICK-UP ~ ALUMINUM BENCH SEAT

The aluminum bench seat was designed and built by Brian Stinger. It is completely made out of aluminum buck rivets. A bench seat was fabricated because it fits the truck cab the best. Brian designed it in two pieces….the bottom and the back. The seat bottom has two doors that are attached by piano hinges. Under one of the seat compartments is the wiring harness and under the other one is a tool compartment. The seat back tips forward on two quick release pins so there is access to the rear window…..which was made to go up and down by a leather strap. The back of the seat has lower back lumbar. The upper back of the seat is slightly contoured to fit a person shoulders. Bell-holes, bead-ribs and doubling up of the aluminum was done to give the seat strength. The top center of the seat was topped off by an acid etched…vintage aluminum winged badge that came off of Brian’s old furnace from his basement.
