Does anybody know how to remove the rear seat back? I got the bottom out and then removed 2 screws holding the lower edge of the seat back to the floor. No amount of manipulating has gotten the top edge of the seat back to let go. Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks
 
I've never played with something that old, but from your description, it sounds like it is mounted like most newer seats and you just lift the back straight up vertically. I wonder if you look from the trunk side if you might see something?
 
Right now I can’t get into the trunk. I lost the keys, but I’m working on that too. I’ve tried straight up but no luck. I’ve pulled the lower edge forward and lifted but that hasn’t worked either.
 
Well, I got the seat back out! The backside of the seat back is framed with wood. Looks like Oak or Ash 1x6’s. The top of the seat back was held in with 3 wood screws from the trunk side. Since I couldn’t get the trunk open, I couldn’t see that.
