looking good! i had a mustang like that once. it was a 97 v6 convertable and it was red. i got SOOOO many tickets from that car. ended up smashing it inna tree. the tree destroyed the frontend and i got a tick for "damage to village property" for taking off a piece of bark from the tree that was 1"x2". its a $75 ticket. that was 12 years ago last winter. now i drive a plastic car, go figure!

Guys what do you think about seats like that in my 79 monte?

Please note I have a 59/60 Impala dash to go in - just kinda like that:

Were are those seats from, I am looking for some gray/black to go in my Grand National. Would they fit good in my car?

thanks!

thx guys! will see how much work it'll be to repair the frame rot :wink:

I found the seats at a german online shop 'sitz24.com's "Blade" leatherseat'.

I think I'll go with a more retro/classic look for the interior. So what do you think about a 59/60 impala steering wheel? I thought it would look cool with the matching dashboard in the car.. I found a smaller aftermarket look-a-like in 15" diameter:

but I don't know if that steering wheel would bolt on my 79 monte steering column...?

i say go for it as far as the steering wheel. It might have the same spline, but if not, you might be able to find a way to adapt it.

thx 🙂

I think I found my seats: Procar Rally Seats
They'll look awesome with the 59/60 Impala dash and steering wheel.
