Question about seat track spacers on 1974 Panteras

It looks like 1974 Panteras have spacers welded to the chassis to provide clearance for the seat to move freely on its rails and not drag on the carpet. Yet both seats are currently hitting the seat belt plate when moved, especially on the passenger side. The seats stop moving forward when the seat hinge hits the large Phillips head screw that secures the seat belt plate. Does anyone know if this vintage Pantera originally used additional spacers?

In the picture below you can see how the seat has been dragging near the bottom of the plate and chipping its paint.
