[FWDLK] 70 Chrysler 300 Convertibel

[William Huff <whuff@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I have a strange problem.  When I got this car, the
driver power bucket seat did not work, was stuck in the upper position
and it was hard to get in and out and I was way high in the car. 
Had to slouch down to see a traffic signal once stopped at the
light.

Sooo, I just finished repairing the power seat mechanism, all works well
except one part of the switch.  I need to get another switch. 
But that is not the problem, the seat is still too high.  Apparently
the two inboard mounting hole in the floor are higher than the outboard
mounting holes.  The P.O. had a large stack of fender washers on the
2 outboard holes to level the seat.  The seat bottom is not level,
but the height unbalance seems opposite, in other words the part of the
seat to the middle isthicker than the part of the seat bottom to the
outside.  When mounted, the seat is high, much higher than the
passenger bucket, which is non power.

This leads me to believe that perhaps throughout the years someone
switched a right hand passenger seat bottom for the left driver seat
bottom.  If this seat were placed on the passenger side it would fit
properly with the exception of the folding seat back which is for the
driver side.

Has anyone experienced this non-level floor before?  Does anyone
have a spare driver bucket seat bottom they would part with?

Thanks,

Bill Huff
