Hey all, I am trying to sort what company built this EMPI seat clone. It is from the 70s, but there is nothing to identify it by. Thank you for any help.

You should remove all the covers and that foam or whatever it is covering the fiberglass so we can identify the actual seat.

Mine is from the late 60s- early 70s. It just isn't EMPI.
