Will old(1964) Ghia seats slide onto new(1974) Ghia seat tracks or do I need the old seat tracks to work with the old seats?

The design of the outer seat tracks changed in 1969
when they also narrowed the distance between the tracks.
A straight-foward swap is not possible.

Thanks a lot. Well I guess its time to bring out the cut off wheels again for more modifications to the poor little car.
