Yes it happened to a friends CGT -- kid in back seat was pulling on it and
snapped.  In my Coupe GT - seat breakage - funny story
I had owned my 86 CGT for about 2 weeks and decided to give 2 of my friends a
ride in it to show it off.  I was taking a big long sweeping 30mph corner at
about 60mph when the car began to oversteer (I know thats hard to believe but
soft Yokohama's on front and hard snow tires on rear) and ended up with in the
ditch then in a field.  Nobody was hurt and car had some minor bumps and
dings and two front seats bent to touching each other!  The back seat rider was
not wearing a seatbelt and man handled the 2 seats trying to brace himself!  I
later had to replace them as they were not receptive to staightening.

The passenger seat backrest in my 87 4kq is broken in two. Has anyone ever
>seen this sort of thing before?
