mickwinf:
Do you mean the type that steps up at the back, that was USA only for last year of production.also known as a k4, will have to order from an American supplier as I did a few years ago.

Johnny4428:
I agree with the above, don’t think there was any K3’s that had the stepped seat.

Yes, stepped seat.

Well mine is apparently K3 manufactured in Nov. 1977 (1978 model) but it also could be a swapped seat from a K4 model?

Can you remember which supplier? What was the quality like?

I just don`t have a good experience with ordering stuff from USA.

Nurse Julie:
The stepped seat was only on the 78 model which yours is and was known just as a K model with no number after it. A 77 model (manufactured late 1976) is the K3 that has the normal flat seat. To confirm, your engine and VIN number should be in these range.
