That car was sold before the seat was to be installed. It's not the high-backed seat and it doesn't have the holes cut it the top of the seat for shoulder harness's. It sort of matches the seat in my <i>Group 1</i> '62 Spitfire where the shoulder straps are fastened to the roll-bar and come over the top of the racing seat.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" style="font-size: 16px;">It is 15" wide.

<p>Out east, it seems the budget friendly seats we see most are made by Kirkey. There used to be a couple of models that worked well and looked OK in our cars, but 10 years ago when I bought the seat for my TR3 I found only one that fit the bill. I seem to remember it was the Series 38.</p>

<p>Figure a little over $500 for the seat and cover from Summit Racing.</p>
