They look like 70's vintage but does anyone know about the claim that these are a "rare factory option?" I am thinking more like they were a common dealer add on!

I don't think I've ever seen a set quite like that, whatever they are they are different. I don't know if they could have been an option or a dealer add on. Most of the early cars ended up with aluminum slots.
