I may have what you are looking for: These are the mounting brackets that retain the seats from a '54. These riveted to to the vertical fiberglass behind the seats and to the floorboard. I also have the wire frames for the seats. I got the car from a guy who started an NCRS project and eventually folded the tent. I am going a different direction and building a restomod. (I know purest will throw up)...but essentially, I have the entire car--less the body, which will be for sale. This will include the chassis, steering , brakes, a bunch of hard to find parts including a rebuilt (and correct numbered) engine, transmission, carbs etc. I'm pushing 80, and running out of time, so I want to sell everything together, but I haven't separated the car from the chassis yet, but if the seat clips are what you need, I will sell then. In 1961,I bought my '56 for $765. Now 60 years later, it has 300,000 miles. Don't think I will get that level of use on the '54, and the entire build is DIY, so progress is slow...

I could also use original dated shocks and a nice original battery tray.
thanks again.

The shocks can be ordered from Dan Patch
They are 2000.00 for the set
The seat bolts - use E head black phosphate bolts from Corvette Central
https://www.corvettecentral.com/c1-5...s%26count%3d45
The bolts are not judged as the carpet is over bolts and cant be seen
You can use these bolts for the radiator to the core support - which are correct
Hope this helps

I don't know enough about how the forum works: Do I contact you direct or thru the forum?. I know I can sell the parts for more money if I sell them separately, but I'm not sure I have that much time left, so I will first try to sell the whole lot. Most of the chrome trim will go as well. Basically, I will use the fiberglass and hinge stuff. Already built a 4.8 LS. Need to shed 800 lbs from stock. Plan to get 36 MPG. I have a write up on the build if anyone is interested.
