could someone please get me a measurement, bench seat 72 dart

OK, yeah, I would expect '71 Scamp to be the same. If I had another 1.5" like you have, I'd be a lot more comfortable.

Thank you very much.

Even though I'm thinking I won't get a different answer, can anyone else please confirm (I'm hoping to get a '72 Swinger measurement also, just in case for some crazy reason it changed in '72, though I think that's unlikely.)

I know my Swinger is an old lady car (/6, auto, bench), but they couldn't all be set up for little old ladies!!!
