    Hi folks.

    Recently got my 1950 Plymouth running again. I noticed as I was putting the front bench back in that one of the feet on the seat tracks was bent. I tried to gently get it back into shape and broke it. So I needed new seat tracks.

    Scored a pair from a similar era mopar - but, unlike the ones I have, they appear to be two drivers' side tracks. They're rigged up in a way that will make them work - but I gotta ask - does anyone know if, for a time, that's how they came - in a pair of identical tracks. The fella from the junkyard says that's how he pulled them from the car. Comments?

    Every bench seat tracks I have seen, left and right were different. Left side had the handle for the catch, and a wire went across the car to the other side.

    I think you have 2 lefts.
