Everyone has their own opinion on things. I like the more traditional look, so I installed '70 Mustang Mach 1 seats in my Comet GT. I plan on getting Mach 1 seat covers for it with modifying the back Mach 1 seat covers to fit the GT's back seat. I had similar seats in my '65 Mustang while in college and remember driving from Bowling Green, Ky to Cleveland, Ohio 3 times in them, very comfortable. For the Sprint, I chose '71-'73 Cougar(same as Mustang) seats. I have the same seats in my '73 Stang conv and have made 4 trips from Fl to Ky in them with no back problems, and they look period correct. To each, his own. Jim
Mitzsubishi 3000gt seats here..pretty sure they're from a 92 3rd gen tiburon seats would look nice too
Can you fabricate? There are literally thousands of factory and aftermarket seats that are better looking & more comfy than a stock Mav bucket. Go to your local Pick-a-Part and try before you buy. I have 2006 Pontiac G-6 (2-dr) buckets in my Mav and a set of 2001 Mitsu Mirage buckets going in my Rambler project. Both are light, the G-6 seats have lumbar but the Mitsu's are bottom line...
I have my eye on some Jetta seats. My wife had a 2012 and I loved the seats, car was a POS but the interior was nice. The back seat was pretty dang close for size so if I can find a set for the right price I'm going to jump on them.
i would be weary of any aftermarket seat out there that is under $400 bucks to be honest. most are made in china (not that there is anything wrong with that). however i do not think they make seats very good IMO. though they may look cool they are really more dangerous then anything else. i have seen seats snap due to weak designs. given nothing is fully save but personally i would run a cheaper sparco, recaro (which is whom make some of the original maverick buckets back in the day). or ideally an approved seat. i know these are not for everyone but i run Cobras seats in both my cars
Just picked up a pair of nice bucket seats at the local U-Pull-It from a Chrysler Cirrus. Leather, the driver's side is 8-way power. $20! And to top it off I found $.46 under the seats! LOL
