Mk1 Post Leg Seats

Post by kensk77 »

Does anyone know when Mk1 front seats changed from post leg to rounded frame? I know it was fairly early but wonder if it was a model year or a running change. Closest I've come to narrowing it down is 1961 or 62 (I think)

Think it was before 61.

My 62 has rounded, but from memory, my 60 had posts, if that helps.

This helps narrow it down, thanks. My 61 is a September 60 build with rounded frames but I'm sure the seats are from a later year.
