Add A Parade Seat To Antique Tractors TRACTORS Antiques 28-3-19 Antique tractors are fun for young and old to ride on, but safety is another matter. When Gene Schneider wanted his grandkids to ride with him on his Cub Cadet, he knew he needed a safe seat for them. With the help of his friend George Barnett, owner of a welding, fabricating and machining business, the idea became reality. Now Barnett is offering it to others with the same need. He calls it the Buggy Seat.
"So far we have only built seats for Farmall Cubs, but we can customize it to fit any standard drawbar on any make of tractor," says Barnett.
The seat itself is heavy steel construction with a weight limit of 300 lbs. on the seat or 400 on the drawbar. It has a wooden base and is upholstered in a marine vinyl to stand up to the elements.
"It has an adjustable seat belt and a boarding step to help children climb up," says Barnett.
The Buggy Seat is priced at $795 plus shipping and handling.
