Hi guys
Help required. Can you confirm that these are split beetle seats as they were with the car when it was found in a Swedish barn
Thank you Dave

the material is April of '51 through September of '52 'streifenbraun' not to be confused with the mid '50 through march of '51 brown upholstery which is sometimes referred to as streifenbraun as well

Is it fair to say, "yes" because the frame is coffee color and not white? In my '54, they are white.
