Doesn't look like the frame that i had imagined. Do you think that the welding approach will still work?

Iossibly there definitely is a metal bar behind the fabric on top because that is where the hooks are that hold the back rest on. Another thing to look at is if you can get a picture of the back side of a newer seat, the new trucks are the same exact cab so i would imagine that the backrest is the same on the newer trucks except they include the headrests now. You could compare them and see how the headrests are held on and if possible you could always get a newer back rest or stick with the welding method.
