WTB: A1 rear seat spring and J hook. D shackle ring.

Post by Miles Through Time » Fri Jul 23, 2021 1:28 pm

Got an M38A1 on display and is missing just a few things that we want to complete the vehicle. The rear seat has only one J hook on the rear panel, presume it should have two. It only has one long bent steel spring/clip to hold the seat down, but holes on the other side, so presume it needs two. And it only has one shackle in the bumperette on the rear, but brackets for two and two up front, so presume we need one. The one that is in place is not perfectly round like the front rings, but has one straight edge coming down, I presume to clear the side of the bumperette. So, more like a "d" ring. Do not know if this is correct. Also, the one that is mising is the passenger side where a tail pipe extension comes out and it looks like the ring will not hang straight down but bang against it, maybe that is why it is missing.

Vendors probably have all these items, but would rather get them from other vehicle restorers who may have some left over parts from their projects.

Let me know what you have an price. Location is Clarksville, GA
