psdenno Posted February 23, 2015 Report Posted February 23, 2015 What’s unusual about the rear seat of the Studebaker Avanti?
psdenno Posted February 23, 2015 Author Report Posted February 23, 2015 It's higher than the front Perfect answer. Backseat passenger get to look over the heads of those in the front buckets - uncommon in 1963 in the days before view blocking headrests.
mfg Posted February 23, 2015 Report Posted February 23, 2015 The higher rear seat was, of course, due to the Lark chassis parameters, not by design!
plwindish Posted February 24, 2015 Report Posted February 24, 2015 The seating was called "Opera Seating" according to the owner's manual of the 2005 Honda Element that two of my daughters have driven during their college years. The rear seat is raised more in the Element than in the Avanti due to its SUV platform.
