The one on my new old fire truck does. I'm still trying to determine if it is a Van Pelt truck, or if not, which company made it. http://home.comcast.net/~chriseye/ft.htmlChris | | | | | Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 3,596 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 3,596 | I have seen a few converted to do this. Classic Trucks or one of those magazines had a "How to" on it a while back. You may find it in a detailed search here as well I know it has been discussed before. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2000 Posts: 769 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Feb 2000 Posts: 769 | From what I can see it looks like a 55.2 seat. The hinge point and stop look like a 55.2 seat. Does it look like the seat is factory mounted or home grown?
Some more pics would help. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2001 Posts: 3,887 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Jul 2001 Posts: 3,887 | that's definitely a TF [55-59] seat, including the 'adjuster' handle - looks like it's been taken off the TF slider tracks

Some of the bolts are rusty, so I sprayed them with PB Blaster, and will try again tomorrow. When I have it apart, I'll take more photos. The seat mount on the floor of the cab has been modified in a few places as is evident in the photo below the handle. I assume that the seat was installed to provide access behind the seat where the cab has two large openings which led to ? ? ? Could these Task Force seats been availablr in 53? I have added more photos to my fire truck page and will continue to do so as the project continues. http://home.comcast.net/~chriseye/ft.htmlChris | | |
