[QUOTE="davidd, post: 114640, member: 1177"] Thanks! My seat had a pressed steel pan and the springs and the horsehair pad. I would resist the idea that there is an early and late version mostly because there was not enough time or production to make large changes, but it could be so. I would note that the open D seat was exactly the same seat, which did not fit the open model well because it was designed for the enclosed model. This had to do with the extra width of the enclosed model seat, which had to span to cover the edges of the leg shields. This seat on the open model has a width that cantilevers over the tubes that make up the sides of the rear seat frame making it clear that the seat was designed for the enclosed model. My Knight was 11,055 reg. TNY55, as I remember. Cyril did advertise enclosures under "CTG." I have a complete set of molds that I will list for sale in Floggers Corner soon. They are rather bulky, so I expect they would be difficult and costly to ship overseas. [ATTACH type="full"]31724[/ATTACH] David [/QUOTE]
