I bought these from another vette owner. He had old Sparco seats that he had refinished in leather and fitted with C3 runners, very supportive and comfortable. And they dont look to out of place in a 1970.

Check out http://www.speeddirect.com/. They have conversion kits with Corbeau seats, tracks, and mounts.
I used C5 sport seats in mine with the power tracks and lumbar. I had to make new brackets to mount them but it wasn't hard to do. The negative is that they sit a little high. OK if your short like me!
