I have a '71 Super, the original seats were HighBacks. I just recently changed to LowBacks and they're pretty much the same base, thus meaning the
rails were the same.
I'm sure the '70 seats/rails are the same as the '71 Supers.

My dad fitted seats from a 70's super into my poor old departed 68 bug and they fitted without too much drama
