I'm in the process of putting new upholstery on the seat in my '47 1/2 ton with 5 windows. I have looked into the cardboard seat back. I purchased one from my FLCAPS and found it to be quite different in look to the picture I found on Jim Carter's site. The one on JC's site has the cut outs and appears to be approximately 8 inches from top to bottom - just enough to hide the springs of the seat back if you look into the cab from one of the corner windows. The one I purchased will cover the back from top to bottom. I have never seen the actual cardboard seat back in an AD truck. Whenever I go to a car show and see an AD truck, I never look in the back windows. Also, the radius at the top corners of the cardboard isn't right. That's not a problem as I can trim the seat back to match. Could anyone provide the height (top to bottom) of the cardboard back? I do have the original fasteners so that's good. Any info greatly appreciated. Thanks.
p.s. did some more searching and it appears that the seat back for 1955.2 to 1959 looks more like what I got. The part number, however, matches the back for 1947 to 1955.1 in the vendor's catalog.
