Piper built about 1200 -260s from 1965 to 1969 (the -300 came along in 1966). From 1970 until production of the -260 ended in 1978, there were just under 300 more built.
Presume the 260 didn't have the seventh kiddy seat? I know they didn't all have it.
The seventh-seat kit was/is equally applicable to the -260 and -300.
