I'm thinking about doing up a pair of the early Sportseats for my '65 - but it's hard to find pictures, particularly of the back. Anybody have an archive? UAI? Andyjboy? Eric?

"....particularly of the back."
Stephans NOS early is in Wollbouclé.
Mine was in plastificated Wollbouclé (I don't know the correct english term).
Here during cleaning. The material reminded me of the Trunk of a VW Squareback

Thanks, Uli. Helpful threads. What I'm looking for is details on a seat like Ernie W's shell in the 1st thread - the '65 -'67 seat known as 'Ferrari, that really resembles a Speedster shell.

I have an original in my '67. I'll try to get a shot or two and post them.

I surely wish someone would reproduce these for the 911. They would have slightly different mounting dimensions from 356...........

Thanks Randy! Your's came out much better than mine! The '67 seat has the corduroy and the same carpeting on the back as is on the rest of the interior. Most have the corduroy, but I believe they could be ordered with other inserts.
