got a possibly dumb question. anyway those headrests could be original to this car??? heres why i ask. a guy i know has an LS6 convert and has owned it for a very long time. got it from the original owner. has lots of paperwork and back in the early 70's pictures. a couple of months ago i was helping him move some stuff around and he had the top down and i saw the headrests which are identical to these but a different color. i mentioned to him that those werent correct for the gm A body buckets and he said hmmm no idea thats what was on it when i bought it and the old pictures of the car when fairly new show it with them on it. so any ideas?????

thats exactly what i thought but when i saw this one and his i thought maybe it was a deal for some reason. i do find it interesting on my buddys car that they have been on there since the early 70's for sure and why were they changed.
