Dave. Thanks for the reply. I found a previous post on seats that had suggestions on mini van and Pontiac Fiero seats. I may look at these before I get to the upholstery stage. I also noticed Sir Speedy recommended a metal frame and spring style seat as you did. The only thing I don't like on the original seat frame is the shape of the steel side plate that is so noticeable when the doors are opened. I may change these up just a little and hope it doesn't detract from the nostalgia look of the interior too much. Comfort is top priority here. My back is just giving me all kinds of problems, so I must have a comfortable riding car so that I can take that granddaughter riding in papa's hotrod. She just turned five and is beginning to figure out what the hotrod is. The frame and chassis with no body or fenders had her confused! Happy rodding everyone!
