Thanks to Ron and Joe Brown for their photos, I think I know what was
missing, though I still don't know why there was evidence of a large screw
having been where there shouldn't have been one. I know my previous owner
had the tiger plus an Alpine for parts, so maybe some parts swapping on the
seats happened too. Sometimes you just don't know.
Tonight I pull the upholstery and foam off the seat bottom, and see what I
unearth there. Tomorrow, we'll see if any of those screws have loosened up
enough to come out. My new Impact tool is ready.
