A vehicle seat system is disclosed, comprising a seat assembly having a cushioned seat structure mounted on two rigid support structures. A front and a rear connector are mounted on each rigid support structure for releasable, securing engagement with respective front and rear anchor members extending across front and rear wells in a vehicle floor, upon entry of the connectors into the wells. Front and rear wheel members are mounted upon each rigid support structure in non-retractable relation thereto, adjacent the respective front and rear connecting members so as to be in operative rolling contact with the floor surface of the vehicle when the connectors are removed from the wells. Front tracks associated one each with the front wells, each extend frontwardly and downwardly, from a respective track entry position, to accept, in guiding relation, a respective one of the front wheel members, upon forward rolling movement of the seat assembly, into the base area of the associated front well, to thereat permit each of the front connectors to releasably, securely engage the respective front anchor member. Rear entry positions associated one each with the rear wells accept, in downwardly through passing relation, a respective one of the rear wheel members, upon forward rolling movement of the seat assembly into the base area of the associated rear well, to thereat permit the rear connecting means to each releasably, securely engage the respective rear anchor member, thereby to releasably, securingly anchor the seat assembly to the vehicle.
