Not sure but I would assume the 67 will have back locks and the 66 will not. Thats how the buckets are anyway.

66 442 Cutlass hardtop and convert along with the 67 44 Cutlass Supreme hard top and convert will have a bench seat with fold down arm rest.

All other 66 442 f85 and 66 442 cutlass post will not have fold down armrest. 67 442 post does not have fold down armrest.

Seats are a functional direct bolt in exchange. Seat cover pattern vary and the 67 has seat back latches.

Headrests were an available option in both years.

If your 3800 model (Cutlass in 66, cutlass Supreme in 67) came with the choice of buckets or bench with fold down armrest, you could get the standard bench seat instead (A52 I think it was) and save $68 iirc. There were also power seat options. As noted above the upholstery patterns varied and the seat back latches were added for 67.

Joe, to clarify that, in '67 the Cutlass Supremes all came standard with buckets and the 3817 Holiday Coupe and 3867Convertible only had only the A65 Strato bench option, a no-charge option. The 3807 Sports Coupe only had only the "regular" A52 bench seat option, a $68.46 deduction.
I believe '66 was the same situation.

Can the latches be easily removed on a 67 seat to "make it" a 66 seat?

Thanks everyone-
