Yes, that is what I would expect with the rear wheels hanging free.

Picture update.
Progress has been made. Interior and rear axle mounting is still in progress. Hopefully a test drive will be reached next week.

The hinges on the small front windows were broken so the hinge is 3d printed.

That might be to pull the seat forward when you pull up on the lever to change the seat position.
Looks like what I have in my 53.

I believe on a manual seat the spring is used to help bring the seat forward but it appears you have a power seat so a spring is fastened to the up/down part of the mechanism to help the seat raise.

I got the doorboards back from the upholsterer. The materials are different from the originals but I think they are really great.
