Default Modifying rear seat to push forward (to extend boot space)

I have a '93 Prelude and was wondering if anyone has ever seen a
custom job done on the rear seat (to this or any other car) to put
hinges on the bottom and clips on top to allow the seat to push
forward, thus extending the boot space like a hatchback. The Prelude
really sucks for transporting things like surf boards !

Have one, (thule roof bars). The bars are about a foot apart and just
about handle a kiteboard. The short roof means bars have limited
support, so a roofbox is out of the question, as is carrying long
surfboards.
Bars are a pain in the ass with wind noise & resistance.
There is already a hole for golf clubs as standard (one seat pushes
forward). I'm thinking of making this hole bigger so I can fit my board
through. I want to be able to through the gear in the back and go, not
spend 15 mins attaching bars and strapping things on.
