67-72 bench seat question
 
Are the bench seat frames and different between the 67-68, 69-70, and 71-72? I'm talking about the bottom of the seat with the upholstery removed. Also are the bolt on adjustable tracks different from year to year? (I'm not talking about buddy buckets)
I bought some new seat upholstery for my '69 and the bottom seat upholstery is 1-1/2"-2" too short on the back side. (too short to hog ring into place).
My upholstery guy thinks it's sewn wrong since he just did a set for a 71 with a kit from LMC. Mine is PUI brand upholstery with the stock scroll pattern for a '69. The seat I am recovering has very nice foam and will fit really good except the material is too short.
Any help would be appreciated.

There are differences in some of them. I don't know what or how for sure but the cushions and tracks are different on some seats.

Mike,... I would delete this thread,... but I can't. (Mods can delete this thread if they want to)
The back piece of material on the bottom of the bench seat, (the piece that wraps under and hog rings to the frame) should be 5.5" wide. On my new cover,... this piece is 4" wide.
I can't give you total seat frame dimensions,... because it's at the upholstery shop.
I think we can make it work with what we talked about in our PM..
