Referring to the drawings, 1 designates theseat support which is ordinarily located just 'above'the' gasol ene tank 2 and to one side of the drivers seat. Mounted upon the seat support 1 is a seat cushion 3 of any usual or preferred construction, said seat cushion beingadapted to slide in af'ore and aft direction on the support 1.
in carrying out the present invention, a. le supporting pad Lsubstantmlly wedgeshaped in ,cross'section, is hinged along its thinner edge to the, seat cushion along a central transverse line, as illustratediii Figs. said pad may bezreversed or swung toward the "frontfgon back, the. -.-th. icker edge of. the pad alway'silying adjacent to either the front or rear edge of the ,ry stitching may be employed I for h ingedyz connecting the inner ih-ave invented new and useful broken away.
