Folding front seat?

Ok, what's the deal? Do any of the front seats in the 67-72 pickups fold forward like the 73-87 trucks do?

Quite a few of the 67/68 trucks seem to have had this, esp with the base model seat.

I've seen a lot of both.....and haven't found a rhyme or reason as to why some tilt and some don't. As a last resort, you could take out 2 of the large phillips head screws that hold the seatback rigid.

The seat I put in my 71 came out of a 67 and it folds forward. My 70 GMC seat does not fold.
