Doing a big build project leveraging a 1980 SC as the base vehicle and the guy working on the body has asked that I find a replacement seat rail for the passenger side. However, I'm struggling to find the right part so thought I'd check to see if anyone knows what part number I should be looking for here. You can see the pitted seat rail support in the image attached.

Thanks!

P.S. yes, we are replacing the floorpans too

I would reach out to restoration design in guelph Ontario Canada, if it exists , they probably made it.

Thank Iceman, I did earlier this morning - emailed with Alex DeJonge there. They said they don't make it at this time.

Maybe try carpoint.de.

wow looks like you may be fabbing your own or cutting one out of a wrecked tub to use.

Yes, I am fearful of the fact that I may have to find a donor vehicle (salvage) to take this off. Interestingly enough there are companies that make this part for older cars, just not this generation.

The damage you see here is a result of someone leaving the car with the sunroof open for a long time (think years). Let's just say that I had to be quite violent trying to get the seats out as they were rusted beyond belief and were not moving one bit!
