    a little something for the seat experts

    trying to ID this one. I've been told it's not a Recaro.
    fiberglas shell.
    side to side distance on the mount studs is 405mm. studs are 8 x 1.25mm w/ 13mm nuts.
    mounts for the headrest are ~ 10mm wider than std. Recaro (eg; D style)

    Scheel ? Koenig ?

    input appreciated. also, interested in mounts / sliders.

    Hmmm, if I remember correctly that's an elf seat correct to a mid year 1965 Santa Sleigh V4.0 w Flux Capacitor option. LOL. Merry Christmas and happy holidays to all on the board. Anyone know if that's the rally version of the seat?

    This looks like it could be a mid 60's Lotus Elan seat.

    searching 'Lotus Elan bucket seat' turns up images that look more like 914 seats.
