I'm trying to determine where my new custom rear seat should sit in my Nomad. I'm not using the stock wagon seat. Because of my tubs, I may have to move my rear seat forward a bit, and don't want to push it forward too far so I thought using the HT as a guideline would help.
I know the rear seat in a HT is further forward than in a sedan. Can anyone tell me how much further? Does the rear seat sit just in front of the seat brace on the floor? How do you locate the seat braces on the floor (I have a pair)?
If you put a straightedge across the back of the door opening, how far back is the front of the seat from there? I was looking at a pic of a HT rear seat area, and it looks like the bulkhead for the seat back is forward of where the floor ends and goes up to the trunk...it's not like that in a sedan. See my attached pics.
How big is the gap between the front of the rear seat bulkhead, and the top of the trunk floor where it meets the main floor?
I have some GM drawings I'm trying to scale off of, but things don't seem right to me.
I attached a pic of a HT rear seat area and a sedan rear seat area.
Thanks for the help.
