Anyone know where I can get a decent pair of "stock looking" low back seats?
Not lookin to restore this car, would just like new seats that look very similar to the origional type. Can't find any on the web. Found some low back bucket seats, but I want seats that look and function like the origional ones.
Any suggestions? I couldn't even find anybody selling their frames so I could rebuild them.

low back seats
seats for a 66 or 67 can be hard to find. earlier ones are somewhat similar and may suit your purposes. make sure, then, to order the corect year seat covers. The 66-67 seat covers fit poorly on earlier seat frames.

I've seen seats on thesamba.com usually for about 40 bucks a seat but you will need to totally redo them and find a way to ship them to your place. Here's an example:

If your looking to recover the seats anyways and have a few minutes on your hands, check the wrecking yards and if your lucky to have a vw wrecking yard around there check them if the plain one doesn't have a set, you will have to search the yards, if they pull them it'll run you more, same with the vw yard
A volksie thanks,
