Optional seat holes

[Hilljack68]

Ok, so in the process of changing the seats in my 68 Coronet to 71 Charger seats, I quickly realized the holes in the floor would not accommodate the 71 seats. As I was chucking up a drill to punch some new holes, I looked underneath and spotted (through the gunk and under-coating) what looked like another set of optional holes in the floor brackets. All I had to do was continue the holes through the floor pan, and viola!... the 71 seats dropped right in. (insert angels singing). These other holes are probably old news to a lot of you, but I was unaware. Just wanted to throw this little tidbit out there.

Just keep looking(?). My guy does good work ( per everyone); but he’s had it for 13 months now.

Hey Jeff - The problem I've had is that so many paint guys are booked waaay out. Two or three years in some cases. But I found a good guy right here in Wooster, OH that can start next Spring. How long it'll be? Not sure. I'm going to meet with him again after the holidays. Hope you get yours back soon, brother!
