Originally Corvair was inspired by the VW / Renault idea of totally basic transportation. Kind of surprising the Corvair did not offer a business coupe / no back seat model. Why Chevy started thinking about that for the 1976 Chevette is anyone's guess ... but, it was not a popular model ... and the vast majority of the Scooters were ordered with the optional back seat. I think the seat was made standard for the 77 model year with a seat delete option that may have never been exercised.

I don't know about 1976 to 1978, but dad's 1979 Chevette Scooter has a
rear seat. It is a true no option car, except that GM threw in an AM
radio for free when he ordered it. No dealer had in stock a no option
car in these parts.

styled sedan as recently as 1953 :-) [and maybe in 54?] as did several of the other GM
lines. And, the much later Chevette 'Scooter' was a business coupe with no rear seat
while the rest of the car's lines were 2 and 4 door sedans ... with rear seats :-)
