Farmall A seat

mark2009 · Aug 7, 2009

I have a 1940 Farmall A, and I'm trying to make the seat a little more comfortable. Right now it just has the bare metal seat. Around the edges of the seat, about every 2" are about 3/16" holes. Would this have been original, or did someone drill them to put a seat cover on? I can't find any reference to this. I'd like to keep it somewhat accurate. Any help would be appreciated.

RustyFarmall on this forum has seat pads. Lost his website but he may post here if you ask.

Those holes are not original. I use a piece of 2in foam then get a seat cover makes for a nice ride. You can get covers from 15 on up even can get one with the original type covering.

Some of the early letter series seats had a cushion that was held with fasteners (rivets I believe). I can't say whether your seat has IH drilled holes or something else.

When I restored a Farmall A in 1975 I used a seat off a junked forklift. It had a back rest & nice cushion. I went for comfort. Hal
