Hello,
I am restoring my 1958 M37 and currently working on fixing the drivers seat. I have the rails and the seat back support. I am not sure what goes on the bottom. All I know is that the cushion springs go on a wood board, but I am not sure if anything else goes under that wood board. Does anyone has pictures of the breakdown of the seat assembly? all the parts involved. I am having problems finding info online. Thanks in advance for any help.

There's nothing under the seat bottom but the adjuster rails. They bolt from the bottom up.

Re: Drivers seat restoration
Thank you Gary! I appreciate the help. So to clarify, the seat backrest is put over the tracks, the cushion board on top and then all bolted together?

Welcome!
If you check out the gallery, you should quite a few albums with a lot of driver seat info, I'm sure I have some info in my albums.

Re: Drivers seat restoration
The seat back spring cage hooks onto two tabs on the inside seat frame; you are correct on the bottom board: spring cage and cover rest right on the wood bottom. I do not know how they are fastened.
