Can 4 Door Bench Seat Be Made to Tilt Forward For 2 Door

Hello,

I need to know if:
- A 1975 Chevelle 4 door bench seat will bolt into an 2 door 1977 Cutlass with a bench seat.
- Is it as easy as adding "a little hardware" to make the seat back tilt forward for rear passengers of 2 door car or is it a complex modification? The seller of the bench seat says its "no big deal" but I'm not so sure and seems not to be all that easy if at all possible. The seat is in good shape and color is correct otherwise I would look for something else.

Appreciate any help!

Adam

You would have to totally rebuild the seat. It would be a huge undertaking and you would pay a trim shop a bunch of money.
