Hello,
Can any of you fellow pelicaneers please give me an opinion on what the best choice of seats would be for a 1971 911T "Sleeper" 3.8 Hotrod. I am just finishing up my car and the whole idea is to build a more than capable 3.8 RSR-spec'd hot rod that resembles nothing more than a nicely restored and inoffensive 911T. A true wolf in sheep's clothing per se. My situation is that I love the original seats, which I have re-upholstered to a perfect original feel, but they are so slippery and offer so little side-bolster support that when I make a sharp left turn, I end up in the passenger side. I have thru the last year bought and restored three sets of original Recaro seats, the always nice "Sportsitz" with tilting brackets, the very rare "Idealsitz S" and the later "Ideal C" with the Baupunkt headrests. All these are very comfortable and offer great support, but they do not fit the aesthetics of the project since they give away the hidden sportiness of the car. Regardless, I must choose a functional seat and here is where I ask for your honest opinion. Is there another compromised choice? From the three I have which would look better in a "sleeper"
Please share.
Thanks
MD
