few questions about pro-car by Scat seats 64 F-85 Protouring
Guys getting close to ordering Pro-Car 80-1000-51L and 51R seats. These seats come with the sliders, but you need their adapters. Do these seats sit to high in these early A-body cars-F-85, GTO, Chevelle, Skylarks with these adapters? Anybody experience this? I don't want to look down on the road ahead of me, rather look straight ahead. The other alternative I though of, is I also like the Corbeau LG1 series seats and order Wedge Engineering sliders-I heard this is the way to go for lower seat. Thoughts-ideas, Thanks.

I have never sat in one, but I've ready numerous comments that those Scat Rally seats do sit high.
I went with Corbeau A4's (wide) in my Cutlass, and I'm having the Planted brackets cut and re-welded lower. Planted told me they are made as low as possible, I disagree.
If you're tall like me (I'm 6'5") you may have some work to do...
The Corbeau seats show their base heights in the product details.

Mr. Nick I'm 5-9,however I do like the Wedge Engineering sliders, I think it was on Team Chevelle ( maybe) I read about how the Wedge sliders lowered the seat height over what Corbeau had to offer for a little more $$. Now leaning on the Corbeau LG4 seat with Wedge Engineering sliders. I sat in a Corbeau LG4 seat at Dallas Mustang in Dallas and wow it wraps around you, have not sat in the Pro-Car.

Pro-car and Corbeau are both really comfortable seats, Quailty of product material and put together I give the notch to Corbeau, more modern build, but in an early 70's the Pro-Car fit the build better, similar stitching and quality of leather. Your Call,

I had the Pro-car 64 F-85 seats in my 1966 GTO Couple. In my option they are Great, functions work really well recline- decline well enough to nap in the seat, sit almost exact to stock bucket seats height and width, comfort solid keep you in place went turning, I think you'll like it better if you want to blend into your stock interior, but if you want the interior to look race ready, then the Corbeau seat, which I have in my Toyota BJ42 truck.
