aftermarket seats

I have procar seats in my 67 vert, old ones like 1999 models, they sit too high and are worked. So I have been researching seats. I liked the corbeau sport seats, the scat procar and elites sit too high and dont like the design of either of them.

I went to a place today, sat in the corbeau's nic but way too high and head reast only goes up and down, sat in the recaro specialist lxf seats, I think I had a seatgasm but for 2100.00 a pair I lost my boner, then I sat in flo fits, very close to the recaro in design, steel shell construction, and the lowest sitting seat of them all and have thigh bolster, front back/up down headreast adjustment, They are about the same price as the scat seats but much nicer, lower and comfy and have a 2yr warranty. I got a pair uncovered for 550.00 and I can have them done in leather for about 300.00 per seat. I thought flo-fit was out of buis but this company bought them........Seat Source > Home
and they are nice! I'd buy the recaros if I drove my car more than twice a month but for the price I dont think you can find a better fitting, lower sitting comfy seat for an early stang, you will find them on must sellers with pony upholstery for 1600.00 a pair. I dont want to hear from you concorse guys how I am ruining my stang, my stang accels faster, stops faster, handles better, is quieter, gets better mpgs, has OD, looks nicer, has a cloth top, a smaller steering wheel, a roll bar and a non stock color and has a long history......BUT I have all the original parts to put it back if I wanted to...yeah right! I still have the original black and yellow plates that came on the car.

I will post pics of seats, upholstery and install.

I pick up the seats tommorow then its off to get some leather. I looked at the cerrulo seats they had those too, very similar to the recaro as well but sit a bit higher but comfy too nicely made as well.

Well,

Did a test fit on the seats today, they do sit low BUT I realized as low as I want to mount them they wont work, they will but a bit too tight, the convertibles have about 2" less width between the rocker and the trans tunnel, I can raise them a bit and will fit fine. I can say they will fit 66-73 coupes and fastbacks perfectly and sit nice and low. I'm going to try the tabbed sliders they have but if not I will probably return them, before that if anyone with a coupe or FB wants a set I will sell them for what I paid, I actually paid the bare seat and frame price but they were out so I got one blue and one tan for the same price 550.00 no tax.

They do fit! I got a set of different sliders and tried one today, sits about 2" lower than the scat seats, the headreast adjustment is about 1/8" away from my roll bar though but really nice fit even in the vert.

I used the seat source sliders, the bolsters are more prononced than fox seats. They are exactly the same as the old flofits

They actually sit about 2" lower than the scat seats.
