How many folks out there with factory 1966 front bucket seat headrests (RPO A81) or regular front bench seat headrests (RPO A82)? These are available in reproduction, but you seldom see originals. According to Novaresource.org, only 556 Super Sports got them and 197 bench seat cars received the A82 version in 1966.
With only 10,000 1966 Chevy IIs built in Canada, I'm always amazed at how many got documented factory headrests. At an indoor car show a few years ago, there were three Canadian '66 Super Sports with factory headrests (one was a six cylinder). My Canadian L79 Nova SS is the only L79 I've ever seen with documented 'Strato' head restraints (see pic below). I have a book of over 3 dozen L79 pictures and none have factory headrests.
If you got 'em, let's see 'em!
