I recently restored an Empire Tractor. Since they were largely component tractors, like the Earthmaster, this seat assembly must be from some other more popular machine. The bottom is a solid plate with a small nub to anchor the coil spring, which is not visible here, any thoughts? I've not seen one like it.
Empires mostly used 'Monroe style' seat assemblies with the long shock up the back. Thanks.
