I think I can make this work with some scrap steel, at least on the 60 portion of the seat.

On the 40 part of the seat, I was going to use my existing seat tracks off my 83 seat. They are too long. For those who have said the newer style seats will work by using the 73-87 sliders, did you cut them down or ?? Use the front hole and cut back down or use back hole and cut front down? Looks like I could use one existing back hole in the seat and the square body slider, then cut a couple of inches off the front of the slider and drill a new mounting hole in the slider for the front bolt.
