    Seat supports? Empty Seat supports?

    Post by bratbike Wed Oct 10, 2012 7:27 am

    I have a '62(?) Eco pickup. I need to find the right seat supports. I have a pic here- http://www.retro-cycles.com/Eco_seats.html - of the supports that came with it. I think that someone made the 2 brown pieces scratch ? The black piece looks like it is original? I have had the Eco for years & am now ready to get it running for a Sunday-afternoon-ride-around mobile. Any help will be much appreciated.

    Thanx Much!

    None of those are original or even close to it. Originals are about 18 inches long and a foot or so high for the inboard support. The outboard isnt tall,only about an inch or 2 high. Im all out currently of the ones you need. Try Fred Carello on site here.

    Thanx Much!

    Here are a couple of pictures of the seats out of my 62.
    The drivers side I believe is correct. Not sure if the passenger side is as it looks to have been added later looking at the mounting holes.
