No, I think only the buckets reclined, the split benches were reserved mostly to get in and out of the rear seat area. I don't really ANY of my split bench seats reclining ( except when broken, LOL! ) Just my seven Gremlins worth of opinion. :) I don't think ANY Gremlin seat reclines, that was reserved for the Concord , Matador type of seats, I don't know that Hornets ever had recliners, either. Could be wrong, though. Anyway, just recouping from my new job, wow it's busy work, tight schedule, my back aches as well as my hands. TGIAF, the work is killin' my under-utilized body parts! At least the people there think I'm doing well, I've showed them a thing or two about building sheet metal chassis's, so maybe I'll get a decent raise sometime in the future. :) Right now, just learning to adjust to the environement of "Tempest" rated computer equipment ( data-shielded for security) . Ya'll have a good one! Jerry whipped, dipped, strippped, pipped, and snipped...
