LAAT Rear Seats
Hi Rob,
Firstly, congradulations on finding a LAAT. The initial images look like she is a fairly complete C30 sitting on 10.50x16 tyres and certainly not a wreck as discribed. Your eyes are not deciving you, the rear seat bases do indeed slope from front to back. If your body has them missing, then you should find evidence of where they were welded to the side of the locker, as I found this on mine (mine were missing as well), easy enough to fabricate. You should also find a number of small holes on the bodywork, 2 above the rear wheel housing, 3 on the inner wheel box, 3 or 4 on the top section of the upper part of the body and one above the rear locker. These are for " lift the dot" fasteners which hold the back and seat cushions in place. There are only a small amount of LAAT's over here in England ( I've only ever seen Ford versions,all late models, my Chev being the exception), most of them have had their storage bins etc removed, although, I'll have a look though my photos to see if I can find any more details for you.
Keep us posted with updates
Cheers
Keith
