    Hi All,

    I can't store the 6 way power seat from my Wildcat. It is available for FREE, but you must pick it up in Montreal Canada. It works flawlessly and quietly in all directions. Individual parts sell altogether for 600-800 bucks on fleabay. From a rust free/salt free car
    If you need certain parts, Make me a fair offer for my time to take the part out. Shipping won't be cheap.

    I'll keep the seat until Aug 10, then it's trashed.

    If I were closer, I'd take it off your hands. I would love to convert my manual bench to power.
    The only parts it would take to upgrade would be the seat tracks/frame and the power components-but all that weighs a lot and shipping would be extremely expensive!!

    Last chance. neighbours tired of seeing this ratty seat just outside my garage. If I have time, I may strip off the pwr. seat stuff.

    I may just have to check into how much freight would be....

    Wiring would be dead simple. I unswitched power wire to the seat.

    Are those headrests that I see on your original seat?

    They are, but really chewed up. Don't know if it's a full set I can check if the parts are all there.

    They're not as bad as I thought! They're both split open on the inboard seam, but they would make good cores. Chrome is good pic 1+2 pass side pic3+4 drivers side

    How much do you want for the headrests? If those are factory, they are definitely worth saving. Also, it would be worth saving those rectangular chrome buttons from the door cards.

    They are factory. A82 Headrest-conv. on my build sheet as well as A42 6way pwr seat. How about $50. bucks for the headrests and whatever to mail them. I don't think they would be too heavy. I will cut open the seats and take anything required to retrofit them. PM me if you want them.

    What's wrong with the black dash pad?

    I’m interested in the armrest plates on the door panels.

    That dash pad has multiple cracks all over it that I tried to repair myself. Thought it looked great in the house, but it couldn't stand the pressure when reinstalled. split all over. Changing the car over to non A/C and needed a non vent dash and the parts car had a mint one. That one is junk.

    They are not in great shape, but I can check them in the morning. They probably won't fit anything but a 67-68 Wildcat or Lesabre.

    Are the vents in it any good? I would take them if you're just gonna throw it away.

    They look to be about 21 inches long, which I believe is around 53cm. If so, they will fit Skylark custom 2doors as well.

    O.K. Just had a look, they are 20.5 inches long. There are some cracks where they always crack, near the door release. I had sprayed them black as the chrome was totally shot. overall, they are sound but need chrome. I'll take a pic
