So I'm still tinkering with my seat mounts - just realized it appears I have two different year seats? Notice the release lever...
My passenger side seat

Driver side..

Which would be correct for a 65SS? Or is either one correct?
Thx
Greg

Top picture looks like 66.

The release levers are attached to the track which bolts to the seat. One lever looks like a '65 lever the other one looks like a '62-'64, if memory serves. You can probably find a '65 track pretty easily, as I think they're the same as the A body (Chevelle, GTO, Skylark, Cutlass) cars by '65.

Thx any idea which would be for the 65? I like the top one with the black handle.

The black handle is the newer style (I believe '65). In '66 that handle was the same shape but it was chrome. The other style with the chrome lever that pivots forward is definitely the earlier track, as that's the one that was on my '63.
