Would anyone have a Jupiter bench seat available to buy, or else from a long term restoration which i could borrow please?
My dad has just acquired a Jupiter with a pair of bucket seats, and he prefers the bench type. Maybe we could swap if anyone was interested? The car is a Mk 1. Were they different? I dont know.
Many thanks,
JB

No difference between mk1 and mk1a that I could see when fitting. You could temporarily use a javelin front seat, but you need a seat that tips forward to access the boot properly on the mk1.

What type of bucket seats are they?

I think they are late Austin 7, upholstered in black leatherette. Smart enough. And yes they dont tip, so it is a pain to get into the back!
