By the looks of the great list that you sent me it looks as though I have the '68 bucket seats.  I thought I did, cause a guy want to trade me for a set of '69 buckets.  I was just wondering if he was telling me the truth or if he was trying to pull the wool over my eyes (so to speak).  I like the '68 buckets and don't know if I want to trade.  I am not looking to make the car original or anything.  I just like the look.  Now as far as the interior kit...can I get a '68 kit?  Is the carpet mold for the '68 and '69 the same or do I need to buy separate pieces?
 
Thanks Kent,
Lojac

Lojac,
 
  Here is a list of how to tell the different bucket seats apart:
 
'66 - bucket seats have no release button (just lean them forward) - the back panel and lower panels are metal - headrests are optional (RARE !)
 
'67 - bucket seats have a release button on the side - the back panel and lower panels are metal - headrests are optional (RARE !)
 
'68 - bucket seats have a release button on the side - the back panel and lower panels are plastic - headrests are optional (RARE !)
 
'69 - '72 bucket seats have a release button in the middle of the back - the back panel and lower panels are plastic - headrests are standard.
 
Hope this helps, let us know which seats you have.
