: I have my Great-Grandfather's 47 and the original rear seat has the taller rear pad. Most photo's that I have seen of the 2A's have the short one. My question is when did they go to the taller rear pad??
: The funny thing is they took the rear seat out and put it on the front porch for my Great-grandmother to set in because it was the only seat that she could use and her feet touch the ground. It was there for over 45 years before I picked it up in May.
Great story about your grandmother. You can find Jeep stuff in the most unlikely places. Like rocnroll says, the 3b page has some good info.Following there info I looked all over for a tall seat for my 3a. Then for my next project I found a one owner 2a and it had a tall rear seat? My guess is it was a after market seat because when removing old covering, found a onion sack from California as a liner and the jeep has always been in Indiana.
Ain't it fun!!
