MGB Seat Modifications to improve lower back support

Post by Graham Dix »

Please see the attached photos of my 1967 MGB seats before and after restoration. You will see on the restored frames that I have fitted an old length of seat belt at waist height to limit the amount of 'give' in the seat back. As a back pain sufferer I have found this to be a very useful modification. The belt is wrapped around each frame tube once and secured with pop rivets.
