Default Re: rear seat removal

a bit of trivia;

From about 1947 - 1957 Chevy built a model called "business sedan"

The market was traveling salesmen who stacked their sample wares on that rear platform. The platform was made of wood, was just tall enough to make the floor level over the driveshaft hump. The few factory originals I have seen were all pained black. In hind sight it seems a four door would have been more convenient but for what ever reason it was only done with two door models.

Another example of a by gone era.

[correction, business coupe or businessman's coupe, not sedan]
