Saw this at the last trendway show in holland mi - Jeff the owner showed me the reversible seats - I never knew that existed - he said there is a commercial but this is all I found https://testdrivejunkie.com/1975-old...e-commercials/ learn something new everyday!

 

Back in the day, I owned a 74 Monte Carlo, and it had the swivel seats just like those. I thought they were so cool. I rotated them to enter and exit the car for about a week, and then the novelty wore off and I never rotated them again.......

 

Yep, swivel seats were fairly common. My neighbor had two 1975 Cutlasses with them.

 

I can only think of one thing I'd like to have happen to me when that seat is swiveled out.

 

They aren't "reversible" seats, just 90 degree swivel and they were RPO AN7, available on certain 1973-77 A-body cars. Chrysler actually did make a car with a front bucket that turned around completely.

From the 1973 dealer brochure. Note the third small photo down.



THIS is a "reversible" seat:

 

Swivel Bucket seats with "reversible" seat cushions.. Velour on one side vinyl on the flip side of the seat insert..... They were attached with velcro

 

OK, that I didn't know. Thanks. I'll admit that the 73-77 cars are not my strong suit.

 

Joe, maybe he meant reversible seat cushions with swivel seats as 75 was the only year they had them....

Jeff

 

Yeah - sorry - I meant the cushions flip over from cloth to vinyl - never seen it before

 

I had a 76 w/ swivels, if the cushions were reversible I never discovered it. They were great for putting shoes on/off @ the beach or skates for pond hockey though.

 

Thought this post was going in the wrong direction . Cool option 75 hurst has them

 

There's a '75 Supreme with the swivel buckets and reversible seat cushions like this sitting in a JY here in MN. I own two cars with the std AN7 swivel buckets. People I show them to are always intrigued by them...lol
