Default Which seats for 1st gen camaro?

I tried fitting some Corbeau seats I had for another project to a 67 Camaro convt project. The height was way too tall. So tall I could see over the windshield. My customer wants a racing style seat with harness slots in them and one that flips forward for access to the back seat. Any one here used something that a 6ft to 6 2 tall person can fit into?
Thanks

If you remember with mine, this is a real problem for a taller guy. You could probably use a Recaro Speed or Corbeau, but you will have to fab mounts to sit the track and adjuster as close as possible to the floor, and probably back a little.

I had the Recaro Speed in a 4th gen with a custom mount just far enough off the floor to be able to move it and I still had to recline quite a bit to sit comfortably.
