A friend of mine had the floor pans replaced in his 68.I saw the work before the seat pans were installed it looked great. I went and checked the work on the floor after the seat pans were installed and i had to tell the person who installed them that the passenger seat is going to sit higher than the drivers side that it doesn't look right....I had to point this out with my friend out of ears shot because he hasn't noticed it.I am asking is there a differance in the hight of the seat pans on a factory pan (origanal). I can look at the pans through the rear glass and i see the back side at the tunnel is higher on the passenger side . Sorry about the spelling ,Something just don't look right,any thoughts welcome.... Mike

Hi Mike, floor pans should sit even . How much higher does it sit? If its minimal, your friend could simply shim up the drivers side slightly to even it out. Hows your 67 coming?
