These came in my 55, and they are not like any bug seat I've seen...they sit at a way rake...no room for legs in rear, and my legs barely fit under the wheel...plus you have to lean way up to shift...they mount like bug seats...But???

Is your bug on the correct pan? those are 55 seats or so they look, but remember 55's had flat seat tracks, and 56 and up had a slant seat track thus the reason they are laying backwards...can't really see your seat track in the pic too well.

Yustrn...Good thinkin...it is on a later pan....and I was thinkin' abiut cuttin' these up so they would work...Now I'm on the hunt for later seats...Or....Could I cut the seat track and lower them to a flat position...then I could use my 55 seats
Thanks....

Man to every pair of those 55 seats, there is probably 200 laters. I wouldnt do it. Then you end up with that adjustment knob on the side.

DONT CUT THE SEATS! I have been looking for a pair like those. You can install the early rails to make them work but your car looks like a standarrd model which would not have rails at all. The seats are held down by wingnuts like the early van rear/middle seat.
PM me if you want to sell them.

cheers,
