FS: Uber Rare Paddy Hopkirk Carrera Recliner Sport Seats

[greggearhead]

EDIT - SOLD

These are extremely rare, in any condition, but these are in very good to excellent condition. ONe recliner knob is broken, and there are a few thread pulls on the fabric, but for seats of this vintage (early 70s, likely) they are amazing.

The drivers seat is a bit narrower than the passenger seat (or vice versa I suppose) - I am 5; 8" 165lbs, and the bolsters are just snug on my ribs. I suspect they could be bent out a bit, but I haven't done it on these so can't guarantee. The wider seat has plenty of extra room for me.

Colors are black on the bolsters, and the centers are tan, orange, a reddish orange and brown.

$1500 or best offer.

As usual, trades of other sport seats, steering wheels, carburetors, road wheels considered.

Ha. According to Jalopnik, these are the best seats in the world. No, seriously!

great discussion in the comments section.

I thought the comments were kind of boring. But that's just me.

Likewise - thanks.

While I've gotten lots of interest and lower offers, I'd consider a serious offer.
