      Which seats for my Cutlass

      I've been waffling back and forth on which direction I want to go with my interior. I have a mint set of 2006 GTO seats the have been sitting on for a while, but I recently have been thinking of Recaro LS-B's. I know I should not have a problem getting rid of the GTO seats if I choose the Recaro's. I think the Recaro's have more of a perfromance look than the GTO seats, so I'm looking for opinions on what route guys would choose with these 2 choices?



      Recaro LS-b(borrowed from JJ interiors-will be doing my covers should I get Recaros)

      I installed the GTO seat's in my 70 chevelle. If you do a lot of driving they are like sitting at home in your recliner.

      I had a 2005 GTO, the seats are very comfortable! (even for me at 6'6")

      Downside is they are very heavy, something to consider if your watching the pounds...

      The GTO seats are WAY too big for muscle cars. They look bloated and marshmallowy.... that's not really a word, but ya...

      I know you already decided Chris, but here are some pics of corbeau trs seats in a 69 for anyone else interested in seats for their cutlass. I took these pictures at Cowtown cruising for a cure. I have almost the same gauge setup as this guys cutlass, well except for the little gauges he has in it.

      Ron is doing some LX's for my 71 Cutlass. Cant wait. I like the way they look as well. More like the originals. I had a set of Sparco Torino II's for the car but I didn't like how they looked with my otherwise stock interior.

      I still am partial to Cipher's. ;) They 'fit' muscle cars well.. don't look ricey or bloated.

      69cutlass those are very nice seats. I'm leaning on maybe doing some A/C racing with my 64 F-85 and the vinyl granny bench seat is not going to work. I love the sleeper look but you will never sit still in even the slightest turn on the A/C

      I like the Corbeau's, but I got the Recaro LS-B's for $200. I hated to spent the money on new seats when I really didn't want a black interior. I'll run them stock in the beginning then have them wrapped later on. I blew my money for Ron on my paddle shifters from Twist Machines....
