Thanks for the comments everyone! I am very happy with them. The guy who upholstered them is going to make a black and red shift boot to match the seats with the left over material.

A while back I tried to use Fiero seats and found that, when folded forward, they hit the top windshield frame, limiting the space available to slide the T-Tops or what ever, into the storage area. If yours fold down to at least the dash, I would be interested in knowing how you mounted them.

Seats
Has anyone noticed any other seats that fit well in a C3 corvette? Or any modifications you can make to the seat tracks in an early C3 to lower the seats. Or has any one ever repaired a rip in a leather seat? Are the floor boards in an early C3 fiberglass? or Metal?
Just curious.........................Chris

Someone correct me if I am wrong, but C3s floors are fiberglass up until 1974? then metal from 75- on, or is it 1976 is the first year for metal? I have a 72 and it is feberglass and a 76 that is metal. Remy
