Seat tracks?
 
Anybody used different seat tracks for their 64? Appears mine are wornout and every time I get on throttle the seat looses it's position causing some slight terror, LOL.
1st time was like maybe I did not get it latched right, 2nd time was thinking ok something not right. Did 3 time last night so pulled the seat and looked, tracks appear to be worn out, notches for adjuster are rounded off and tracks appears to be spread causing adjuster to jump when launching or hard on gas. Ames does not list a set for 64 so what is everybody using? Maybe time to upgrade seats to something more comfortable.

The Parts Place lists them. Might be worth a phone call.

Which part is too long? Seat part (piece that bolts to seat) or floor part or both?

So appears that I have the short version of these tracks, Nobody repo's the correct one for GTO or Lemans. Nova site has some that will work but adjuster knob is different
than GTO version. Looks like these are 64-65 only. After Nova ones that are close require shims in rear to keep height the same.

OK does anybody have a parts listing for the 64 seat tracks? Are the bucket seat outer track the same as outer bench seat?

Saw these on ebay this morning, thought you might be interested.

I went through this a few years back. While I did find a good set it seems to me someone with an engineering mind could probably repair worn/broken sets.
