I have most everything to add a power seat to my 67. It's a option that I've always wanted and I think I might just do it soon.
Questions;
I know that power seats in general were a "always on" feature not needing a key to operate. I'm wondering where the system gets fed from? My 67 has power windows and has the circuit breaker on the firewall to feed the key on relay. Does a power seat also need a circuit breaker of some kind?
Any help from somone familiar with the 65-70 B body power seat setup?
Cheers, Mark

I have had a few of those. If you want it absolutely correct, I think it may have had it's own breaker.
If it were me, I'd find the power seat track you will be installing and run a wire from the same breaker. What are the chances you will overload the breaker by running the power seat and power windows at the same time? I'd say nil.

I should add, some of the later model vehicles have the power seat wire built in to the harness running under the carpet but I would say from experience that big orange wire is not likely in your harness in your car. You could remove the seat, lift the carpet and check just in case but I doubt it.
