Seats
 

The time has come for me to find some seats for my project. I've been thinking about the style of seat i'd like to use and am thinking "hot rod" style. Something that would hide the head rest in a low back style but still have the head rest available for safety. I've looked at the Ford Flex second row seats but the headrest still sits on top of the seat.

I know i've seen seats out of a Chevy that had the "SS" emblem embroidered into the headrest and it was completely flush with the seat back when lowered. However I have no idea what vehicle or year they were out of and no idea where to search for these elusive seats. Anyone know?

any other suggestions that may fit the bill would be appreciated as well. thanks.

I actually found pics of the seats. Not the greatest pics, sorry. I know they're in a Ford truck but these seats are actually stock Chevy seats out of some "SS" model. I need these seats.....please help.

That's the truck West Coast Customs did for S******e. Go to thier web site and see if you can get any info or just call them and ask.
Good luck!

I have no idea what those seats are but I know that the Cobalt SS had SS embroidered on the seats, and the late model Impala SS can apparently have it also.

You can also have it done to whatever seats (although I've been told only if it's leather, not vinyl) but it would obviously be cheaper to find them.

I tried calling twice and twice spoke with two different people there and both replied "I don't know." That's why i'm hoping someone recognizes them. I've even tried doing Google searches for Chevrolet models and "SS" models but haven't located anything. The WCC site is no help either......

I'm not trying to get a seat with "SS" embroidered on the headrest as I know there are several available but was describing what i've seen on the seat in factory form of the ones in the pictures i've posted. Thanks for the responses guys. Appreciate it.

FWIW, the leather seats in Cobalt SS's are Recaros. I believe the Saturn Ion used Recaros as well...

Keep in mind that on the seats in the pictures above, the "SS" may stand for Sylvester S******e and not Super Sport.

Trailblazer SS seats say SS on them. Big seats, iirc integral seat belts. I'm not sure they meet your needs.

haha, sorry guys....maybe i should be a bit more clear. my apologies if previously it has not been clear as to what i'm looking for as i'm posting late at night.

what i'm looking for are the specific seats in the picture as they ***hide the head rest into the seat back*** giving it that low back look and not just any seat out of a current "ss" model that chevy offers. i'm not too concerned with having "ss" embroidered into the seat back either as i can get that done to any seat.

the seats in the s******e truck were reupholstered in leather as you see them in the picture and the "ss" emblem was not added to them at this point. what i'm describing is the "ss" emblem was on the seat prior to the reupholstery in their cloth form when i remember seeing them. that is how i know they were in a chevy "ss" model of some sort. that is unless the seats i saw had the embroidery custom done.

when i saw the seat in stock form the head rest was black and the body had gray cloth fading from a light gray and getting darker in an upward direction. was a very 80's type of cloth. again, don't know if i saw the seat in a factory cloth or if it had been custom covered. i also will be covering them in leather once i locate them.

hopefully i've cleared it up. thanks again for all the responses...i truly do appreciate everyone looking and trying to help.

any member in corona that could possibly swing by the west coast customs shop and ask for me? i know i'm asking for a lot but i would be willing to send a six pack of fine canadian beer in exchange for the seat info......please......:cheers:

another angle, minus s******e this time.....small picture i know

as luck would have it, these look pretty damn close if not are the exact ones.....in the for sale section the "greening's" camaro....anyone know now?

FWIW,
I went with a set of GEN 2 Dodge Viper seats. Need to get them re-upostered but they look great and feel far better than what the original 69 seats feel like. Not to mention...somewhere around 30 lbs less weight.

So, I went to the Street Customs section on TLC and looked it up. I wound up on the West Coast Customs site and found the sponsor list for the F100. It includes Cerullo Seats. I went to the Cerullo site and saw their GT seats. It looks like they recovered these seats minus the headrests.

I'll be on the hunt for seats soon too. Glad you found the seats in the WCC truck.
I may use Cobalt SS seats and recover the headrest to get rid of the SS. My car is not an SS, why promote false advertising?:D

I truly appreciate everyone's help. Sometimes certain things are right in front of your face and you don't see them. How many times did I go to the Cerullo and WCC sites and there it was. :willy: Thank you everyone that responded. :thumbsup:

It's only false advertising if you put those "V-Tech" stickers on your car....hahah....I hear the red one's give you 20 whp. hahahha:rofl:
