First gen vs 2nd gen seats appearance and seat comfort
Hi guys - the '79 SA I just bought and posted on yesterday as 2nd gen seats in it. Those seats are tired and to foam is collapsed to a point where they need to be redone. My intention is to keep the car as visually stock as reasonably possible (she will be used rather than a garage toy) while doing modest upgrades to improve how she drives and what she is like to live with.
From doing a bunch of searching here it appears that the consensus us that the 2nd gen seats are more comfortable. If that is correct and first gen seats are hard to track down that suggests I should just get these redone, yes?
Any tips or ideas on material? I am in SoCal so thinking cloth is the way to go rather than vinyl.
Thanks!

Hi - thanks for the note back. Fortunately in SoCal I have a lot of choices of upholstery shops but was also hoping to get some feedback on how comfortable the first gen seats are.
Nice work n the GTU btw.
Thanks.

Damn, it did start!
I had 3rd gen seats. Required adapter plates that were fabbed by someone else. Very nice.
