Default Seat Info

I am contemplating making a set of seats for my car. Searching the forum didn't turn up any dimensional data. Has anyone tackled this? Looking for any information

Thanks

Paul

Hey Paul, they are just 3/4" tubular construction. If you have a good way to roll and bend it and are pals with a stitch why not. I guess the trick is that bottom cushion bladder but I have seen webbing used to good effect there. I have some info for you on those, frame pics etc.

Default Tape Measure?

Nick
Do you have any measurements or details? It would be real easy to get the angles incorrect and have a good looking seat that doesn't ride worth a damn

Hey Paul
I might be able to set you up with a set of original style seats if you don't want to build them.

Paul, while we were at the LCS in June we were checking out seats for her comfort and one gal offered the wife a ride in her car, the wife said those seats made the Cobra ride very confortable. The seats are from an Acura Integra, they come with heat if you like. The gal said they drove from Chicago with only potty stops and no sore butts, this was her car that was built for her.Just my .02 cents worth. Carl
