Fixed back seat frames (FREE)

I have a pair of "fixed" back bucket seats that need foam and new upholstery, but the frames are solid. Fixed meaning the back does not recline or adjust.
Hate to throw them out, but I have no use for them. Shipped from zip 94002
FREE

Last call before I scrap them.
Is the seat back frame the same frame as the ones that recline? I am looking for one Alpine V seat back frame to replace one I have on my driver's side seat that is bent and twisted out of shape. I am in the process of putting on new upholstery and cushions.

Someone else can chime in with the answer as I don't have any knowledge about that.

Series I/II seats essentially the same. They have a metal perforated base frame the squab suts in. Back rest are fixed and no real bucketing.

Iirc the SII has the ability on the runners to recline the whole seat slightly.
____________
The series 3 - V and Tiger share the same basic microcell reclining seat. There are some details differences between them..in the trim mainly ..

Early s3 have a base squab with a seperate thigh support squab and the split rear backrest centre.
They use the webbing to support the base.

Later series 3 same as above but the base squab now 1 peice.
They use contrasting pipping on the seats
_______________
Series IV and Tiger same as series 3.
_______________
Series V uses the same basic seat but the base frame has holes drilled for hooks as the straps are replaced by a rubber diaphragm.

The rear squab is now 1 peice and there are more and thinner pleats in the covers. MKIa tiger use the same.
_______________
MKII Tiger same as above but covers have linear pleatd vertical on the rear all the way to the top. Base please nth-sth direction.
