What Seats are these

Post by sennen »

I have a pair of seats and looking to sell but have no idea what year they are or value

Can anyone help identify them and value

Exactly the same as these

I think it’s virtually impossible to help you accurately from the limited information you have given.

Noted, I’ll shall have to get them out of storage and take some more detailed pictures

Thought the above picture was enough to date them

It's difficult to tell from that picture exactly which year those seats are but, to me, they appear to be '71-only seats fitted with '72/'73 'peanut' headrests.

And there’s another pair ‘exactly the same’ in Sennen’s loft Andy which is why I posted the initial difficulty in pricing without seeing the actual pair in question.

The hinges are 356.

Somebody retrofitted the headrests.

Looking at the seats again I think Ian's correct - the side hinges do appear to be 356 parts ...

Seats, minus the headrests, look like late 356 seats indeed. Rails looks like T6 rails. But impossible to say for sure. Could be also mix of parts from different eras.
