Looks like a "one off" custom seat to me.

There is a nice double seat on the Horseless Carriage Club web site right now.

Looks like a couple of days worth of ambition to me...

If you do feel ambitious... make sure you support the seat skin well. Nothing worse than going thru all that effort just to have the seat edges fold over every time someone carelessly climbs in. A large diameter wire (1/4”) edge and rolled beads will go a long way to stiffen the seat skin, but don’t overlook a sturdy inner framework

Looks like a modified touring seat with high back bucket seat backs.

We make them custom for people. from just the frame work (tin wrap skin, with or without embossed body lines) wood frame and riser to what ever you want. Price is time plus materials.
