Strange folding front seat - any ideas

Post by **oldmod1968** » Thu Jun 04, 2009 9:56 pm

HI, I bought a blue folding seat for my two door but on collection I found it had a different fixing. Basically it was on a runner with sprung bar across the front that allows you to adjust the position.

Any ideas what morris it could have come from ?

Why do you think it came from a Morris ?

Sounds like a disability conversion.

Yes, there was a thread on this some time last year. Definitely sounds like a seat from a Government issued Mobility car.

Definately the same as the Government Disability Minors. I've got a pair under my back porch and another pair in a car...
These can't be fitted without using the wooden 'wedges' that fit under the runners to the contour of the floor shape.
The trim / foam/ straps etc... can be transferred to a standard seat however the bottom of the upright cover will be slightly different.
