Headrest Availability
Short answer: Headrests were optional on 1967 (code AS2) and 1968 (code 571). For 1969 they became government-mandated — in two styles, straight (early, same as 1967–68) and curved (later).
The 1969 upper seat frame is the same as 1967–68, so a 1969 frame is the easiest way to add headrests to a 1967–68 (use the padding and cover for your model). Note 1969s built before 1/1/69 still listed headrests as a charged option — they all got them, but the price sheet didn’t make them standard until then.
