Seat back adjustment
Tried a "search" came up 'dry'.....ok, the seat-backs in my C3 simply lean back too far......and I see no adjusting mechanism anywhere. So how do I get the seat-backs to sit a little more 'vertical' and less 'laid back'?

On my 73, yo can turn (counter clockwise) the large round flat bolts on the bottom of seat back. If you need to raise the backs more upright, there are plates that were supplied by Chevrolet. Look at any of the vendors catalog, and you will understand how the spacers work.

You should have a set of theses on the bottom of each seat back.

I posted a pic above, I just used those sticky things that you put on the bottom of
your furniture so you don't scratch your floor. Just cut them to size and put one on either side.
Now your seat back will be in more of an upright position.
