Power bench seat

[Princess Valiant]

Anyone have ideas on what modern car I could take a power seat track and make an A body powered bench seat.

I know such thing is possible because when I was younger I saw a 71 dart that someone had a power bench seat but I didn't think to ask what parts they used. Seeing that car like that left an impression on me and I never forgot it.

Now I want a power bench seat in my 69 valiant. So any ideas?

How about one out of a M Body or just the rack part adapted to the Valiant bench.

I saved a 6 way power rack from driver’s seat from a 68 Town and Country wagon and mounted my 66 A Body driver’s seat to the rack. It wasn’t quite a bolt-in but close.

Do you have any large barge C bodies in the back 40? A lot of them came with power seats that you could rob the tracks and electrical stuff from. Might be a good idea to wire it up on a relay when you do it.

oddly enough, I have never had a C body with a power seat.

I think that was more common with imperials, which I've never had.

I have 2 furies and a polara out there and two have manual buckets and one a manual bench (the one with the center armrest)

I have not seen an M body in a junkyard in several years but that is a good idea

Here is a MoPar 6-way power seat track from a C-body split bench I believe, probably mid 70’s? The measurement on the mounting studs is 11”x16” but I don’t think the passenger side had a power seat.

That rack looks pretty much like the one I’m using.

Any "modern" car with a bench seat is gonna be a challenge.

The only power bench car I've ever owned was a 66 olds 98.
