ksbeta Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 These seats came with the Series 1 240z I just bought. The guy claimed they were stock, and that as production #1,222 it had some "expiremental" things going on (no bracing in doors/hood, and these cloth seats). I don't really buy it: I've never seen any seats like these before. Anyone recognize these? I can take better/different photos if needed.

19762802+2 Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 They are stock seats that were either done full fabric stock or reupholstered by some shop at one point. I'm sure one of the History Guru's will make a comment about if it was stock or redone at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Looks just like mine. Are the backs vinyl? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksbeta Posted July 9, 2010 Author Share Posted July 9, 2010 The material is the same all the way around; no vinyl evident. I figured in 40 years there was a chance they were re-upholstered, I mean, the car was repainted at least once, it's not a far cry to believe some extra work was done. Interesting that you say yours look the same though, that points a slightly different direction. I'd be curious to hear those history buffs chime in.

MONGO510 Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 They are not stock. They have been reupholstered at some time in the past. Mongo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skib Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 (edited) They are stock seats that have been reupholstered Heres the stock seat in black vinyl, what your seats originally looked like before they where reupholstered.

Tyler Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 It's so weird that my car across the country has the same fabric upholstered. Only difference is mine has black vinyl backs. I'll try to get some pictures tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiveSeventyZee Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I've come across a set of 240z seats that are exactly what you seem to be describing. They are black cloth on the fronts and black vynil on the back and sides of the bottom. Are these really original? because the guy says they are original from a 240. And Tyler please do post pics of yours. I would like to see what they look like in car with a good clear picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamikaZeS30 Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 (edited) I could've sworn that Nissan did offer cloth/vinyl seats at one point. It would make sense, because those vinyl seats suck anywhere that it gets warm. They were like black/gray/charcoal color cloth on the contact areas of the seat and then had vinyl on the back and sides (kinda like NA chassis Miata stock seats).
