A vehicle seat is provided for use in a vehicle including floor means having a pair of front and rear wells and anchor members extending across the wells. The seat is movable between a fixed, operative position and forwardly tumbled, storage position. The vehicle seat includes a pair of rigid support structures disposed on opposite sides of the vehicle seat. Front and rear legs are mounted on each of the pair of rigid support structures. Each of the legs includes a front and rear hook member for latching and unlatching the seat with respect to the anchor members. Each of the rear legs is pivotally coupled to an associated rigid support structure so as to be movable between (1) an operative position extending generally downwardly with respect to an associated rigid support structure, and (2) a forwardly folded position disposed generally adjacent an associated rigid support structure. Handle structure is coupled to at last one of the rear legs in a position to be manually grasped and operated at a side of the vehicle seat for unlatching the rear hook members thereby permitting the vehicle seat to be pivoted about the front anchor members and moved to the forwardly tumbled, storage position thereof. The handle structure includes a lost-motion connection constructed and arranged such that when the rear legs move toward the forwardly folded position thereof causing a portion of the handle structure to contact a surface of an associated rigid support which would otherwise restrict movement of the rear legs, the lost-motion connection permits the handle structure to move, enabling the rear legs to complete movement to the forwardly folded position thereof.
