Custom interior with wheel tubs - Lateral-g Forums

01somta · #1 11-13-2007, 10:05 PM

I am looking for custom interior pics with wheel tubs. I would prefer it to be a first gen. camaro with rear bucket seats, but it atleast has to have a rear seat. I will be running 335/30/18s, the guy that is building my wheel tubs and doing all my sheetmetal work is questioning wether I can fit rear bucket seats without them looking to small or to close together. It seems like the only pics that I can find are cars with stock wheel tubs. I wouldn't mind have a solid backseat, but I would prefer a full length console with buckets.

He no know what he talking about. Here is a pair of full size buckets in the back. We have used a few different style seats in the rear, works fine.

We make and sell these side panels in fiberglass for mini tubs.

I found a under construction pic that shows the back seat pretty good

very sweet car. You said you have used various buckets in back... I was wondering what cars you have gotten them from or if they are aftermarket?

Corvette work best because they are inherently narrow. However the tops have to be cut down because they are inherently tall also. 4t gen Camaro seats fit to.

I know that it can be done, he is just wanting pics. I don't think he believes me.

What size of rear tires are those and are those DSE tubs or custom fabricated? Thanks Frank.

If you're talking about full size drag race style tubs, the chassis builder is probably correct. And if its got a cage in it, you'll never get anyone back there anyway...

They are going to be custom fabricated tubs with a custom 4 link, but no cage.

A little extreme but here is a full back-half with full wheel tubes. We are running 31x18 tires and still have room for 33x21's. With a little thinking we were able to build a 3/4 sized rear seat and still have it appear to be a full rear seat. Car fits 4 people no problem.
