Nick Acton did the fabrication/modification work. It was physically impossible to drive the car when I first got it. Now, I wear it out every chance i get.

So is that a picture after all those mods or before??? You look like your a little big for the car in that picture. I used in my Contemporary early Jag E-type seats. Cut down the back 3 inches, easy the frame is made of wood. The bottom part of the seat is lower than Cobra repo seats and the front edge is angled to give room for the trans tunnel so I kept the track slides and the seat can go the whole range of front to back.
