Happy Sunday! The seat track supports 6361796-A are missing for both buckets in my 69 Cobra. The support is identified in the manual, volume 4, page 18-02-02 figure 1. I have them on order. My question is how are they mounted? There are no screw holes. Were they welded in? Free floating? Under or over the carpet? Thanks, Ed
Thanks,Ed

Hi Ed,
The risers just sit on top of the carpet.  Note in the pic below, you can see the indent left in the carpet from the riser.

This site shows some.  Have heard stories of difficulty dealing with them, but my only experience with them years ago wasn't bad.  The owner has passed away and the family continues to run the business I have heard.  They have tons of hard to find 68-71 parts.

Good to hear on the transaction.  They have some very hard to find items for the early Torino's, hope pricing was fair.
