Hey guys, I have an opportunity to grab a factory swiveling seat out of a 59 Imperial 4dr in a local yard here in MI.
Wondering if:
A: It'd be worth the trouble of trying to exhume that heavy beast. I don't have a 59, nor do i plan to any time soon, but is there a market for a piece like this?
B: is the frame/base interchangeable with a 2dr seat? I assume that some would like it if they happen to have a 4dr that could use it, but it might be something that 2dr guys could use as well if there's a way to mount the tilting seat backs to it...
C: is this an imperial only piece? I know Chrysler and Desoto had swivel seats and an option, but were they the same base/fames as the Imperials?
I'll post photos from home later. The car is pretty rough, but Let me know if you are interested in any of the easier to lift/grab parts and i can tell you if they are worth grabbing next time i see it.
