Apparently the back seat (bottom) flips forward then (the back) folds down(if that makes sense). Problem is I can't figure out how to release the seat so the bottom flips forward. Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
From what I remember there is not a release on the seat bottom it just yanks up. The seat back cushion may be preventing you from pulling it up. There is a metal rod that is attatched to the seat bottom and after you get the seat up it swings around the seat and becoms a leg for the seat to rest on. The seat back snaps into two clips on each wheel well that yanks out also. Good Luck. Pat
Can't help with the Chevy but but my '54 Ford wagon back seat work like that,,I just grab the seat bottom and pull up then drop the seat back. HRP
Thanks fellas, any other insite on this? I am asking this question for somebody out of state and not on the HAMB, so its a remote question.
No latch on my '55 Chevy 2 door. You have to pull up the seat base from the back, It takes a good yank to get it started (ha - yea I know). You might want to squirt a little penetrating oil in the front hinge if its hindering movement or been sitting a while. Remember, It's heavy wood and steel seat, not like a new Honda. Once you do that, pull the seat back down out of its catch. Hope it helps.
