I really don't know but this showed up in the stats on BAT in need of one and at an apparent bargain of a price

If the one referenced, I haven't seen a 7 pict. of any era with a rectangular tunnel, all have curved tops, so ? If buying a new chassis then all you are interested in is the mechanicals, elec, registration, etc etc...
Ed... I added a lumbar support in mine (non adjustable of course), a strategically placed extra piece of foam in front of the plywood....
, good for an hour or so...?..
