New to type 3s. Just picked up a 65 squareback. I got the rear seat back to fold down, now not sure how it comes back up. Seems to only come back up a few inches before it stops. Am I missing something or just pull harder? Thanks

They can be kind of sticky when trying to come back up if it hasn't moved in some time. Basically start pulling it straight up then when it stops pull it toward you or the front of the car and up at the same time. That's what I do with mine. It's how that hinge piece slides. Hope this helps

It hasn't moved in over 35 years so makes sense. Thanks for the help.

Throw a little lube on all the pivot points, it will make your life so much easier.
