Batsy you sound... errr... umm.... BATSY!
Why?
Post pics if you do...
Seems hard with the transmission tunnel and other important stuff in the middle.
You could just add the factory back seat if you need more room.

There is a lot of room in the back of my 63 coupe - could probably put one there pretty easily - it would have to be some pretty short people, and not mind riding sideways to use it.

Column shift? Bench seat?
You know...I have a '69 C-10 that came factory with a column shifter and bench seat. It's a real two-door, two-seater with room for a big block and huge tires, too.
I think you might have the wrong vehicle for your needs/tastes.
Column shifters and bench seats have no place in a sport car. You need to find an old sedan.

Stickshifts and Safetybelts Lyrics
Stickshifts and Safetybelts Lyrics
Artist(Band):Cake
stickshifts and safetybelts,
bucket seats have all got to go.
when we're driving in the car,
it makes my baby seem so far.
i need you here with me,
not way over in a bucket seat.
I was curious what you guys would say! I don't really want a bench seat!
Thanks!!!
