Low Back Bucket Seats
 
I would like to see some low back bucket seats you guys are using. Not looking for a high back race seat, just a nice comfy seat good for long drives that looks right. The ERA seat looks pretty nice, something along those lines.

While I'm sure they're similar, the Supeformance seats are quite comfortable......surprisingly so.

long trip seats
 
I bought a couple of fiberglass Cobra bucket seat and had a local shop to upholster them. Extra pad under your legs and lower back area.
I have the seat tilted back just a little. Spacers under the front mounting holes help give me the correct angle.
I can drive ten hours with no problems. I drive 2 hrs with a 15 minute break then back on the road.
I do have a bad lower back and right knee. I use a cloth filled kids soccer ball between my knee and tunnel to take the pressure off the knee. Works great. When I'm not using the ball it is stored behind the seat.

Dwight, where did you get your fiberglass Cobra bucket seats from? I've looked at a few but not upholstered hard to tell how they look. Can you share a pic?

These guys have some nice historic roadster seats for a reasonable price. I had a pair and was very impressed with the quality:

I bought them 15 years ago.

Try Shell Valley, B&B Barry McGill or Unique and see if they sell them.

Thanks Dwight, I'll check out those sources.
Mongoose, I see some possibilities with the roadster series, thanks.

I have a pair of black leather Cobra seats that I purchased from Shell Valley a while back. They have never been installed and are in "NEW" condition. I just pulled them out to put up for sale on Ebay. If I remember correctly I paid $1200 for the pair. I'm putting them up for sale for $800.
