    Removable seat extensions for the rear jump seats

    Someone over on BAT says they were an option on a 1971S.

    What are they? I've never heard of them?

    No Richard, not quite what I said.

    Not An option,,,, Standard on the 71S. Homologation tidbit. I believe they are also mentioned in Dr Johnsons book.

    Agree, used to race homologate the 71S as a 4 seater. Dont know how many cars were equipped with.
    Here is the only period pic I ve seen, published in the 1971 brochure RoW. (came in many languages)

    Ok. I get it now. This may have been the way the 911 became a sedan for the old Trans Am series.

    I can now see a new item for the market?

    I can't imagine. Just another reason to deceive.

    The first question would be "Are those real"?

    Which as we all know is usually met with a lie.

    It wouldn't have been for Trans Am. 911s were allowed to run in that series as sedans starting in 1967. And they didn't run the 1971 series. I'm pretty sure it was for FIA groups.
