Hi
I'm looking for a Corbeau seat (of the type fitted to lots of the race Tuscans) with the shell in the sort of mustard/cream coloured kevlar weave. It's to match my driver's seat, won't be raced, and will be re-covered so condition/date etc not too important so long as the shell is OK.

I know I can buy a new one, but with all the other costs I'm hitting a few budget constraints ;) And since I gather quite a few of the Tuscans had these seats originally, and they'll be getting a bit long in the tooth now, this seemed a good place to start.

I have a spare Corbeau in the standard glassfibre shell, but it doesn't match the drivers as the moulding is a slightly different shape with a different recline and ribs on the back. If anyone's doing another 2-seater and wants a glassfibre seat to match....

Mail Griff2b, I'm sure he has a spare one, had a small crack in it if I remember correctly, easy to fix though.

Cheers

I have Mike Jordan's old seat, put it in for the drag racing and take the passenger seat out .. saves shit loads of weight

you could get a carbon/kevlar one made by a small carbon company for not much cost if you sold a few of them at one go? nice little earner for you maybe???

You'll be referring to my office chair!

Mine is a Corbeau Revolution in carbon kevlar - a much later seat type and with 'ears'.

I suspect Mr Ball is after an earlier type without the ears.
