WC57 REAR SEAT QUESTION

Post by randal »

Dear friends.
Is there a metal cover in the back of the WC57 Command Car rear seat?
Pictures are very welcome!
Thanks!

Yes, it was pretty much the same as the backing on the front seat. Page 46 of TM 9-808 has a picture of an open tailgate but it is not detail oriented.

Midwest Military has both front and rear seats as well as both trim panels and associated parts in stock.

Do you mean page 295.

John, I did not know you had the rear seat trim panel, will be calling this spring when I take the CC out of winter storage.
I always thought the back of the rear seat was wood.

Page 46 of TM9-808 Dated May 12, 43. Sorry, different TMs have it on different pages.

It's also on page Body--18-9, Fig 21 on TM 10-1531 September 1, 42
