Errata for Noland Adams "Corvette Restoration & Technical Guide Vol. 2" book
Has an errata been published for Noland Adam's "Corvette Restoration & Technical Guide Vol. 2"?
While looking up a production detail regarding seat belts for '66 Corvettes, I came across this photo on page 334:

The seat belts are presumably correct (curious that the shoulder belt buckles are different from the ones on the lap belts). But what struck me is that the seat pattern is clearly from a '67, as the '66 had fewer horizontal pleats. There's no mention in the caption or the text that the seat pattern is incorrect for '66. Or, did some late '66 cars get fitted with '67 seat covers from the factory?
That's unlikely. so I assume Mr. Adams not calling out the anomaly was merely an oversight.
It made me wonder what other errors exist in this book? Considering it was published about 40 years ago, I expect further information about C2's has come to light since then, e.g., big-block hoods being fitted to some small-block cars.
Has anyone published an errata for Noland Adam's C2 (and C1) books?
