[TR] Tilting seat on the TR2 and TR3

[jpaynepbr at cox.net]

As a side note to this, my TR3 driver seat back leans rearward too much for my liking.  What is the thinking on making it more 
“upright”?

I think the “both sides folding forward” condition resulted from a replacement of the driver’s seat with a passenger one. One or two of my parts cars came that way. The driver’s seat would wear out/break more so than the passenger one through greater use. I simple fix for a worn out/deteriorated driver seat would be a better condition passenger seat from another car. Didn’t work so well on TR4As and TR6s because of the different shape of the seat backs.

Andrew,

Looking at the VTR Judging guide, neither seat folded forward until TS8637, after that only the passenger seat folded.  On my TS30800 both seats fold forward, I quite like that.
