Seat Back Lever

[Dave Hiley <dhiley@cadvision.com>]

Hello:

My '72 MkIII Midget has levers on the inside of the back rest of both
driver and passenger seats.  They don't seem to do anything.  Maybe the
mechanism is rusted?
What was the original intent?

TIA

(still aiming at this Sunday for engine start up after rebuild.  Have not
solved the clutch bleed problem yet. That is Saturday's project.)
