Real GT Seat Rails

#1 Post by Edwin Ek »

Is there a way to tell original GT (metal) rails from reproductions? I have a pair of GT seats. One is original and one is fiberglass. I think the rails on the real seat are original but would like to confirm.

Send a photo. I purchased a set of GT seats in the 70's directly from the factory and they came with steel black painted frames. I immediately mounted the seats on the original wood frames and sold them off. I do however remember exactly what they looked like.
