Is it possible to put a back seat in a 1940 coupe(not business)? I've seen it done but assumed they were business coupes. I don't mean jump seats, I mean a bench back seat so I can stick my kids back there. all 3 want to ride with me but only room for 1!

I suppose it could be done but with the solid seat backrest, how are the kids gonna get "back there"? I have seen, even had one, business coupes where the jump seats were (sadly) tossed and a "box" of sorts was built to sit on. Even then, I hope at least two of your kids are very small.

my car has the split seats so the back is accessible, which is why I thought it was a business coupe originally. Kids are 9,8 and 5. Maybe a vw bug rear seat would fit. Should have gotten a sedan but love the coupe.

Yes! The 1937 Ford Club Coupes had full width back seats. More than 15K of them were made. This message was edited by carcrazy on 10-8-23 @ 10:14 AM

I did see someone who used the rear seats from a 65-66 Mustang in the rear of a '40 coupe. As I recall it was done on a business coupe as there is more room behind the front seat and the floor pan is longer than the regular coupe. This message was edited by trjford8 on 10-14-23 @ 8:41 AM
