They are C5 but in not the greatest shape. I do have the originals with new covers in the attic. I prefer the C5 mainly because you can adjust the back easily. Hopefully will get them recovered in the not too distant future. Have a great day, Bill

My opinion is: Custom paint = YOUR car.
I personally wouldn't touch a car with custom paint, and the more custom it gets, the less I want to buy it.

I need to replace the seat foam/leather covers in my '78 but also would like more adjustability and fit. C3 seats are pretty narrow so I'm guessing wider seats might not fit well. Your C5's look like a nice possibility! Were you able to use the existing seat tracks or did you bolt in the C5 tracks?

It's kinda hard to 'splain, but I wound up attaching the C3 tracks/sliders to the C5 seats. It takes a bit of modification to the C5seats. The C3 seats are just a matter of unbolting and reattaching to the stock seats. BTW, there are several threads dealing with this conversion. It's a popular swap. Have a great day, Bill
