Hey guys... can someone possibly provide the procedures for removing the rear seat from my 71 hardtop? Thanks.

Pat,
Get in the back seat with your back towards the front of the car. Grab the front of the bottom seat cushion and push towards the back of the car as hard as you can, and then lift up. It will come loose from the hooks it is attached to. Once you have the bottom off, you will see two bolts that hold the lower part of the seat back in place and you can remove it too :)

It usually takes quite a solid push or kick the first time, but once it's out, you can grease the places it slides to make it easier in the future.
