Re: Cylinder from floor
When I was a kid, my dads 55 had swivel buckets, I think they were from a mid 70's monte carlo.

Re: Cylinder from floor
I drove a '78 Nova for a while (in the early '90s) that if your feet were wet it would ground out the dimmer switch. It didn't dawn on me at first why the headlights would get dimmer & there was a burning smell.

Re: Cylinder from floor
I believe it was the thunderbirds that had the swivel seats and the steering column that move horizontal

Re: Cylinder from floor
this thread really brings back memories of the tricks play on my kids. I had a 86 Buick rivera that you could switch from mph to kilometers. I told my sons it was a hyper drive. Kick the car into passing grear and hit the button, wow, like 140 in nothing flat!

Re: Cylinder from floor
thunder bird had the swivel seat and the steering column went right and then you pulled it back to the left to drive....
also chevy chevelle had a drivers bucket that turned to the outside to let you out....maybe a malibu ... |

 How about the button on the floor to lubricate the front kingpin suspension(crankcase oil) I always thought powering your w/s washer from the spare tire was ingenius, till you had a flat and needed it
