I have my own list of points where I leave traditional ,,The lowback seats are one of those points. I have allready had my lowback traditional seats covered in leather. I now wish I had gone with some higher seatts with head sopport, belt passages and so on.
Two rollbars is another usefull point. The extra rollbar for the passengery makes their entry easier. A cross brace on the rollbar is a great anchor point for shoulder belts . The higher back seats and second rollbar are both points I regret not having now. I would have made other descissions also.

I don't know folks maybe it's just my opinion on looks. But the high backs look like a hill billy lowered pick up truck. Keep it period correct. If you want comfort............by a Miata!

I am also a traditionalist. High back seats look like my dining room chairs. I always thought that builders that use them just have anxiety issues.

Check out my gallery. I have seats from a '72 Pantera. They have a high back and head rest. They are set a little lower in the car than the conventional Cobra seats, but they are comfortable and give good support for long drives.

What is the cost covered in leather in US dollars? Thanks.
