I can restore the existing seats that's not a problem. But what condition are they in?

We do the frame and track re-furbishment in house here, we also do the seat cover and foam installations here but seeing what condition the items are in would go a long way in knowing which way to go. There is a reproduction new seat frame assembly with new covers and foam installed. The issue is they don't have the seat adjusters (tracks).

You might give sales a call at 812-288-7103 or you can email me direct for more info at service@Willcoxcorvette.com. I'd be more than happy to work with you on this.

FWIW, the 76-82 cars all have the same bolt pattern for the seat mount (post #6 at the link).

The clamshell seats from the 79-82 cars are awesome. I picked up a restored pair from a Forum member in MD for my 80 to replace the tired ones that came with the car.
