HOT DANG!!!!! As I started to put the bench seat together and ready it for the new foam and upholstery, I realized I had the wrong 69/70 seat frame...yup, one of the previous owners had swapped out the seats at some point. So off I went to Orval's to confirm my suspicion and returned with the correct seat frame. So once again I was back to cleaning and repairing another seat frame...this time the correct year for what I needed.
