Those of you, especially vert owners, what "non-original" seats are you using and what tracks??? Or, if you have 2nd gen seats in your car which seat tracks did you use and how is the ride height compared to the original seats???
Here's my problem. I have always liked the 2nd gen T/A Deluxe "horse collar" buckets. I picked up a pair cheap a few years back that needed a rebuild. I finally got around to doing a test fit the last couple of weeks. I cleaned and redid my original 67 seat tracks. They needed some minor adjustment to a few mounting holes but seemed to fit nicely. Untill I sat in them. They sit WAY too high. Fortunately I haven't spent any $$ on rebuilding these seats.The original 75 tracks seem to be a no go also. But I may try and see if I can come up with a method to make them work if they sit lower. So I'm trying to decide what to do seat wise. To me I have three options.
1. Just go with a pair of aftermarket seats like Sparco , Cipher Auto, ...etc ...
2. Find another OEM setup, like a set of 68/69 seats with head rests, that will fit. Without a ton of mods.
3. Find an aftermarket set of seat tracks that have a lower profile than my original 67 tracks so the seats I currently have will work.
Any thoughts, ideas, pics of other seat configurations would be appreciated.
Honest dad, that 455 on the side of the block is a serial number
