What you have appears to be a late B-24 Liberator Radio Operator seat bottom and mounting bracket compare it to mine:

If you look on the underside of the seat bottom you should see a part number starting with "32". Do you have any other lib parts?

That's a neat find Peter, it's cool how folks are finding and saving these small pieces of aircraft scattered around the world! That seat reminds me of the seat on 1930's John Deere tractors.

Van, folks at Ol' 927's rollout really appreciated your contribution to the reconfiguration from the comments I heard.

Hi everyone

I am the owner of the seat Peter is asking about.
I took a closer look at it and there is an p/n 32 b stamped on it.
I also have a bunch of other items : flare trays interior shelves etc.
If anyone needs Liberator interior parts feel free to contact me.

Thanks for all the help.
