But every seller swore they were factory original!!! And one seller had the audacity to claim that his 1968 "GTO"(with the grille painted black and 1959-later head restraints and wrong glamor rings) was "all-original" and "one owner"...

Curious..what's the giveaway? I had a '68 back in the '80s that had headrests. I never paid that much attention to them because back then I did not know how rare it was on '68 and earlier cars. My RECOLLECTION of them was that they were visibly different than the '67 which makes me think they were pretty close to the '69.
Only photo I have that shows them at all is this one from when I first bought it..bent bumper and all.
