Hi,

I'm looking for a driver seat backrest locking mechanism. I miss some of the parts on the driver seat (I believe the passenger seat must also use the same parts).

The lever knob is present on my seat. What is missing, as can be seen on the left photo, is the connecting rod. Correct setup can be seen on the second photo. Also the bottom catch lever, with its spring and retention bolt/pin is also missing. The 2nd and 3rd photos shows the correct arrangement on my passenger seat.

If anyone would have a spare seat frame and could spare these parts , PM me. I'm in the process of reulphostering the seat, and I want to fix this before proceeding, whilst also installing the repair kit for the driver seat pivot pin (that was part of a recall around 1977).

Thanks
