Default Seeking bucket seats

Folks

I've a client and fellow motoring enthusiast friend that is chasing bucket seats.

He has discovered his Dad's old Mk1 Spitfire and is trying to do it up to surprise his father but it had no seats when re-acquired.

So likely it will need very small seats I am guessing, as an old pommy leaker.

I'd would appreciate any leads if anyone knows of seats that might be suitable.

Thanks in advance

Steve

Moss Motors has a seat. Not cheap, but should work, possibly with modifications depending on what was left from the old seats.

Thanks but subsequent feedback I've just seen suggests he needs mini sized buckets to be able to fit this old pommy car.

That's seems to be about right as the older British sports cars of that era were all small ala the cobras too.

Guess I have to ask - does anyone have some old mini seats they don't want??

Cheers

Stephen. If he looks up cobra seats in Ebay. There are low back seats, about 480mm wide for $470 a pair. Hope that helps. Bender

I'm also in a Triumph Club. Miata seats seem to be a pretty popular seat swap.
Tons of them out there so got to be cheap.

The Miata seats also have the speakers mounted in the headrests.
