New seats...

Just got around to getting some pictures of my new seats... I have yet to build mounting brackets, but you can get the idea of how they look. They are the Summit racing seats, no idea of who really makes them, but Summit sells them as thier own. These seats are very comfortable, look pretty good to me, a definite improvement over stock...

Great to finally see someone using these seats. I thought about using them in my Firebird but I was a little worried about how to mount them. Looks like you got it all figured out and you can't go wrong for the price!

Haha, firstly, you have SO many freakin' cars.

And secondly, those are some cool seats, I'm looking at buying ones similar to those soon.

For those of you with Shucks/Kragen/Checker on the western side of the states, you can get those seats for quite a bit less in the stores. Doesn't summit want ~189-200 a seat for them? They're $120 with a mail in rebate ea. at CSK.

I got them and they work great.
