Default 1979 Clamshell Seat Foam
Hey guys, I installed some C5 seats in my Corvette so I'm selling the old seat foam. This is perfect for anyone who is looking to re-cover their seats but doesn't want to pay $300+ for new seat foam from the suppliers.

Foam is in good shape all around. There is one tear in one of the seat covers, but it barely cut the foam. Shouldn't affect anything. I tried to take accurate pictures of the front and backs of the cushions for you. Let me know if you have questions. Looking for $80 + shipping.





Picture of tear in seat cover:

Q: Is this the same style as the 74?
Also, where are you? I'd be a lot more interested if I could drop by and see them.

Nope, the clamshell seats are from the later model corvettes. A lot of people with the earlier C3s like the clamshells because they are more supportive and lighter weight.


I'm located in Kansas City, Missouri.

Not sure, I haven't heard of anyone doing that before. Pretty sure the clamshell seats are from 78-82.
