I am refurbishing a 1967 16' not to factory specs since I only have a hull. I would like to put in a RPS seat similar to the newer 17 models. Who is a good source for this? I will also be adding the Moeller tank under the seat.

I will get pics posted once I get rolling.

Try looking at Specialty Marine.
https://www.specialtymarine.commarine.com

They have both the older and newer RPS.

I would only buy the Z legs from Specialty.

I would source the other components as follows:
