A friend of mine is restoring a 68 coronet convetible. He is to the point of installing the rear seat and can't figure out how to secure the top section of the rear seat. Any help or pics would be great. Thanks

I dont remember there being any tricks to it. Is he missing anything from the bottom of the seat frame? Its been many years but I dont recal any difficulties.

Pretty straight forward. The back goes in first then the bottom.

Cant exactly remember from my Dart conv, but aren't convertible rear backs bolt in as opposed to clipped in on a hardtop? Or vice versa??
