Anyone out there who has a 67 with ORIGINAL seat hockey sticks, please reply:
The NCRS technical guide states that under the seat back release lever, there should be a recess in the metal to accomodate a washer, and that this feature wont be present in reproduction parts. I have two 67 project cars, and I believe that both sets of seats (and the chrome pieces) are original. I was about to send them in for re-chroming and I noticed that the seats from the late car do have the described recesses, but the earlier ones don't have it.
This is very strange, indeed. Have I discovered some anomoly that should be written up in future tech guide editions, or has someone mysteriously replaced my original hockey sticks with imposters. I await your responses before I get these rechromed. It would be helpful to include approximate serial numbers or build dates to see if there is any trend.
Thanks in advance, Brandon Korman
