Thread: seat conversion to tilt

Tweet

Looking on ebay, there are tons of like new leather seats for not a lot of money. Most for 4 door cars are almost give aways. Problem with seats for 4 door cars is the front seats won't tilt forward for access to the rear seats. Has anyone modified modern power everthing seats from a 4 door to tilt? I'm gathering parts for my 2 door 52 chevy styline and don't want to pass on some nice leather if they can be used. The car will get regular family use so ease of entry to rear seats is a must.

If you could convert them it would cost more than buying folding seats. To do it cheaply you could hinge the front seat mounts and tip the whole seat forward. But I would pay a little more and get 2 door seats.
