Jflick20 Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 I am looking at this car and it has these custom seats, door cards, center console. Does anyone know a company that did this kit the guy said it was like that when he bought it 4 years ago. I have no idea how old this would be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironhead Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 The seats look like old school Recaros (two different models). As to the upholstery, unfortunately there are thousands of places that can recover a seat. I have no idea the significance of the "atom" symbol. Assuming the seats were...newish...when they were upholstered, it well could have been done decades ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wondering because the logo was all over the interior in the door cards and stuff. the logo is also imprinted on the gas cap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Recaros come on the market all the time, sometimes in new/newish condition, and I never see them bring much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calZ Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 I'm going to disagree with that last part. Recaro LS/LX seats go for a good bit of money. I don't believe that's what your seats are, but there are other classic models that bring quite a bit. The random logo would definitely decrease their value though.

jhm Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 They look kind of like old 300ZX leather seats; although having two different seat models (driver/passenger) is confusing. Any indication of their origin on the bracketry? If they're aftermarket, there should be some origin stampings on the brackets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calZ Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Oh, I hadn't even noticed the passenger seat was different. The passenger seat looks like it is actually an LXB, so you might be able to get something out of it, even though a pair would be better.
