Customer Datsun Fitted With Cobra GT3 Bucket Seats

Customer car, October 2022

Here is a customer's Datsun, now fitted with a pair of Cobra GT3 Historic bucket seats. The retro styling suits the car's interior perfectly: the shiny black vinyl, the basketweave centres and the line of eyelets down the middle all look like they belong.

We also have a pair of GT3 seats on display in the showroom, ready to sit in, and they can go out straight away or be collected.

The customer's car

The GT3 gives a classic car period looks and proper support. Against the black dash and the white gear knob, the seats look like they could have come from the factory.

The two tone effect is what makes them. The centre panels are basketweave, the sides are smooth vinyl, and the eyelets run down the middle of the back and cushion.

The Cobra GT3 Historic

The GT3 Historic is based on Cobra’s Classic RS, trimmed in vinyl and basketweave with eyelets. It is a fixed back bucket seat on a steel frame, with deep bucketed sides and an integrated headrest, and it bolts in through the base.

It is a road and track seat for fast road use and classic cars, not an FIA homologated seat, and its harness slots take a 4 point belt. The size lets it fit a lot of cars, which is part of why it works so well in classics.

Garreth’s advice for any classic is to tell us the car and its year before you order, so we can match the seat to a frame made for it.

GT3 or Classic RS?

We also have a pair of Cobra Classic RS seats in the showroom. The GT3 is based on the RS, so the shape is the same. The difference is in the trim: the RS comes without the eyelets, and it has more trim options, including the same two tone basketweave look as the GT3.

Both pairs are in the showroom so you can compare them side by side. Which do you prefer?

Other classic Cobra seats

Cobra make a wide range of classic seats, with different shapes and trims, so there is a classic look for most cars. Our base mount or side mount explained guide explains how a base mounted seat like the GT3 goes onto a frame and runners.
