rear buckets?

[jamie gsi16v]

board of only having one passenger now and im wanting rear seats back but iv got a 300pound show cage and rear strut brace which i would rather keep and its bolt in so i carnt put my rear seats back in. iv bin after putting bucket seats in the back but the heads are too high on them as the floors raised for the tank. anybody got any good ideas for me?

Excuse the rough piccys. I have some seats in my garage that are for kit cars (I think) and therefore sit LOW. So I just stuck one in the back of the Nova to see if it would fit. Hope this helps.

unless you have tilting subframes on the front seats it will be a total ballache getting int the back of a bucketed nova.

what about kart seats? lol

[Marc]

there is a blue GTE or GSI Nova (cant remember which section) that has 4 bucket seats in his nova PM him and ask how he did it and i think all 4 seats a cobra ones but again not 100% sure

hope that helps

you want a good old 5 door if your going to do that, make getting in an out an lot easier

I'm thinkin about doing it to my five door using gsi seats I think it'll work if i can weld them in permenantly

but getting hold of 4 gsi seats is fooking impossible! (want some for the front too!)

[Philsutton]

if your going to weld them in make sure you remove the petrol tank first

[Aragorn]

standard gsi seats would be just about touching roof with the headrests removed and only short folk would fit ;)

[boredbloke]

they would if i used the runners

I don't intend on that, was intended on chopping the bottom half of the frame off

it's not like the seats are going to need to move forwards and backwards in the back.

Cheers Phil I wouldn't actually have thought of that and would probly have blown myself up..... :roll:

Nearlt drilled through i fuel hose the other day that could have ignited too.... :o :roll:

I do worry about me sometimes :lol:

Lol, After all the work u out in! Wot a muppet! I think you should do the same as Phil....strip the rear out! makes a big difference!

[Philsutton]

ive seen what happens when you weld through a fuel line, an its not pretty
