First gen rear seat, is it useable????

[jbake]

Can someone 6 foot tall acutely ride in the rear of these cars? Is there enough room for me and 3 of my buddies hope in my firebird n take off for a boys night out, or is the read seat more for looks m I can save some weight n ditch the seats???

[MrQuick]

depends on how tall the guys up front are...it was usually the shorter guys got the back seats. Or sit sideways.

[jbake]

Lol well we all are in 6 foot range. Think shortest one is 5'10 n I'm 6'2". I was looking at car last night n thinking there's no way in world anyone over 4 foot can fit back there.

More room in the back of a 1st gen than a 2nd gen.....I'm 6'3" and can just fit in the back of a 1st gen...no hope in a 2nd gen, lol.

Like "TRIX" it's just for kids !!!! But just because someone may act like one ,doesn't mean they will fit. LOL.

That can't be - a 1st gen has even more room than a 2nd gen? My 5'7"+ kid fits no issue, and we've had 2nd gens with 2 adults in the back a few times in the past few years and we survived w/o incident lol. I can't imagine a long trip through. The 2nd gen certainly has more room than gens 3-4-5.

rode in a 2nd and 3rd gen wasnt horrible if you scoot the seat up a little. im 5'11"

I know that a 3rd n 4th gen there's little room, but with mine tore apart I was eye balling it after a few cold ones. Figure I'd ask the people with there cars together.

Well I'm 6'4" and rode in the back of my 68 a couple of times... I have the Arizen front seats which I had the passenger side adjusted forward so a bit more leg room. I recall it not being very comfortable thought a lot of that had to do with the fact that the stock seat itself isn't comfortable at all either.

Back in high school I had the only car amongst my friends and we fit 7 people in my 2nd Gen. We didn't care back then though and the guy in the trunk refused to do it again.

[jbake]

Think I might have it figured out. The 2 that have had the most to drink ill shove back there. Sense I don't mix booze n cars I know I won't be shoved back there

I had 4 adults in my 69 last weekend. It was not too bad, but the girl behind me (driver) had to swing her legs sideways since I push my seat back quite a bit. My 5 year old fits great though, and she's usually the only one back there.
