    Are the earliest sports seats "handed"

    I am restoring a 68S with sports seats. They are both what I would call left side seats. Is this correct? SWB Sam's 67S appears to have the same layout.

    for the most part Yes, by very late 68 they started producing what we in the US would call passenger seats ( UK - Drivers seat ) also when they switched from the non-locking tip base (67) to the locking tip base (68) The handle had to be on the door side so one could unlock the tip feature.
