Nice 76! I love those seats, they look and match the interior very well. What you may want to look into is starting a photobucket account (free). You can start your own album in photobucket and then once you upload your pictures there, you can just copy the IMG code under each picture and paste that into the text of your thread.

They look like C5 sport seats, that have been re-upholstered.


Very nice.

Dennis Hand, Oaktree Motors in Douglasville Georgia. He vends at Gold and Carlise. He supplied Seat Frames, foam, and leather, assembled and shipped to me, for $1,100.00 complete. I also put his leather on my 1997. He does great work. he also sells on E-Bay. I sent him pictures of my interior, he selected the colors, and embroidered stingray and C3 crossed flags.

good eye. They are C5 frames, from a 2003 I think. I wanted something special, and have known Dennis for a couple of years from Bloomington. I actually found out that I could do this from responses on this forum, back in March. MANY MANY thanks to all those who replied then, especially with pictures.

Miked76,Not a big deal but i think i met you and your car at a Monee car show held at the Police Station back in 2001. The white color and the STINGRAY emblems on the valve covers look familiar? I copied the emblem idea when i had my L48 in my car. Maybe i'll bump into you again sometime and get a look at all you have done to your 76
