Yes indeed ALL 1970-72 GM Post Sedan (a-body) were steel, or atleast I have NEVER seen any Padded.

Default Re: 1969 ss 396 old race car bought it 20 years ago

I was wondering where i can start gathering the interior for this car from. I think Postsedan Dan mention one place where it could be bought but dont remember exactly what he said. Also since the car was striped down to a roller when i bought it, Im gonna start gathering date coded engine parts for the car. The trim tag said i beleive it was assembled in may. My question is what would be the exceptable dates for this car. I hope i worded that right. Thanks

I might have mis-remembered (like roger clemens) on my first statement. There also is a general consensus that sometime mid-model-year 1969 the padded covers changed to steel.
Van Hurst's 68 post sedan has padded and he said all 68 chevelles were padded coupe or post.

Wouldn't you have to re=cuse yourself &quot;like a circuit court judge&quot;
due to a conflict of interest anyways [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/scholar.gif[/img]

We`ll let the show promoters decide on that, you just worry about gettting that Post Sedan restored correctly [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]
