Well I finally changed my seats in my 65 dart. And boy am I happy! I could not make up my mind between the procar low back seats, and the Kirkey Vintage drag seats. Well I finally flipped a coin and the Kirkey won out. Here are some pic of them. I left one of the covers off for the pic. Very hard to get in and out of, as you have to sit down in them. No sliding in or out do to the tall sides. But it worked out great in the looks department. As I am trying to build this Dart into a vintage drag car. And I just saved a full 72LBS getting rid of the factory seats! Every little bit helps.

That looks like a factory seat to me. Fits with the vintage drag car look. Is that 72 lbs compared to factory buckets or factory bench?
 
Factory buckets. They were 52.6LB each. The new seats with mounting brackets and covers were only 16.6 LBS each!!!
