They may be Brasilian, but they are definitely not Fleetline seats.
Not all Brasilian buses are Fleetlines.

| They look like the "Portugese" Barndoor version. If so, these are the nicest ones I've seen. |

I think that Portuguese rear seats were the same from 1950 to 1958/60
Few years ago i collected 6 legs middle seat in a 57 Portuguese panelvan converted in 11 window.
The seller tell me that 6 legs middle seat were on every pré60 portuguese 's bus.

Yes you are right Panelvan
I looked again and noticed the brackets on rear seat backrest so that is definitely for a 55>
Barndoor back seat would have the metal tabs on the backrest so it fixes to the inner wheel arch.
The Portuguese seats have the metal frame but with a wooden inner frame, with bigger springs tied with string much like an old arm chair
interesting
