i put evo recaros, they fit ,200 dollrs...there recaros,
What a drag. Been looking for almost 2 years for a nice set of buckets for my 77. I would love to get the next style up from mine which are called the clamshell style. I believe 1979-1983. No luck. Can't find any C5's. No Fiero's. None of the aftermarket seats from Summit or Jegs fit. Every bucket seat I have looked at used is too wide. I am pretty sure I need no more than 19" wide at the base. I heard that some Toyota models fit. I don't even drive my car much anymore because those stock 77 flat bottom and back seats are really uncomfortable plus mine are in very poor shape and need to go to the scrap yard.

There is a guy about 3 hours away from me that is selling a pair of seats out of a vette. He said they fit 1989-1993. Would they fit in my 77? I have the original tracks from my original seats.
Nevermind... he just contacted me to tell me he only has the upper and lower cushions.

Mine were in such bad shape I couldn't rebuild them for what I bought the clamshell ones for! ! You can also try Autoparts.com in the used car parts section and maybe find a set in one of the junkyards close to you ! Before I found that set I found a set in a junkyard in New York but the wouldn't ship them because of the chance that they would get here and I wouldn't accept them and they would have to pay shipping both ways !
All I know is that they are so comfortable that it feels like I'm floating!
Best of luck in your search !
P.S. Shipping from Atlanta to Orlando Fl. Was only $47.00 bucks cause they are really lite but they ship oversize! My brother got them to me on a trip from his place in Atlanta so I didn't have to pay that part!

IT LOOKS LIKE I MIGHT HAVE FINALLY FOUND SOME SEATS!!! A pair out of a 1982.
Black so they won't look that bad in my dark brown interior. Should be getting them this week. They are local. I have the seat tracks from my original 77 seats.
