no...they were not Sears exclusive,,,,,
the story behind the Brand X is Mickey was POd that many other manufactures were using some of his componets ,,so he decided to build something with other manufactures componets,,,,the only real noticable diff is the Fox pedals,,,,and the very first of the narrow steering hoops...
and the steele seat back and floor are correct,, with the aluminum floor pan mounted on tabs using the turbine wheel studs to hold the pan on place
and an FYI,,,I am have some Brand X stencils made to spray the seat and sticker for the number panel
