Has anyone used Pro Car Elite seats in their 63? The model number of the seat is 80-1100-51. I know some have used the pro car Rally seats but I like the look of the elite seat and just wondered if they would fit and how comfortable they are.

Comfort is great> I can't talk about fit as I have the earlier version of these in my Chevelle. They lasted about 20 years with daily use, but the foam is finally worn out and I will be replacing them with the Elite. A buddy had the Rally seats in his 1970 Camaro, and they were comfortable as well, but a lot harder to get in and out of, and you better check clearance between the seat bolster and steering wheel. It can be tight unless you have swapped to a smaller steering wheel.
