Need help finding a part for a 70 vert
Hi Guys:
I need help finding the rubber bumpers that fit between the seat backs, and the vert hatch, to keep the seats from hitting the paint. I've seen these on some cars before, but can't find them in the catologs. Any help that you can give would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Frank

Most of the major supply houses carry them.
I believe they began mounted those rubber bumpers in either 1972 or 1973 verts. Search in those years.

I just verified that they started mounting those bumpers in 1973. They go for about $13 to $15 each.

Riks has them @ $14.95ea. P/N is RIN162 (search under Top/T-top category) 68-72 Verts didn't have this bumper so you'd have to drill some small holes to mount them.

:iagree:
I got mine from RIKS too. I found that with the seat in the rearmost position the seat release bezel was wearing a hole in the decklid. OUCH! :cry
They weren't on cars till 73.
