Re: T1A wooden seat frames
Ted made these for my '53 cab. He had a pattern from a '57 T1 at the time and I gave him my original '53 frames to keep for a pattern. The layout was the same for '53 and '57 frames.
PM with Ted's email address.

Re: T1A wooden seat frames
Yes Autos can provide new frames as part of a seat job.
Fortunately I was able to restore mine. I made two changes: I replaced the end seat rail mounting wood screws with flat head machine screws washers and nuts. And I removed the rivet which holds the seat position lever and replaced it with a machine screw to make it possible to chrome plate the lever easily.
