I bought a pair of seats used and I don't need the second one. It's a black Sparco Evo fiberglass race seat, fits me well (160 lbs, 5' 9", 32-34" waist) and would probably fit someone heavier if they are taller with a similar waist.

Pics can be seen here

I'm asking $300 for the seat and $50 for the new sliders and used seat brackets (sliders and bracket not shown, in the pic a custom Corvette bracket is bolted to the seat) to go from the sliders to the seat. Would like to sell local, but would be willing to ship, just give me some time to find a box big enough (seats are big to ship). I'm at 20882.

Phil, I haven't been able to find the exact same seat anywhere in town. Maybe you can help me decide if I'll fit. I'm 6'-3" with about a 36" waist and about 210 pounds. What do you think? How tight is the seat on you?


Truth be told I think an Evo 2 is probably what you want, it's a little bigger. It really depends on what you like, some guys like tight fitting seats that really hold them in and an Evo would be tight on a 36" waist. I would say before you buy any seat sit in a bunch of them, not just one. I first sat in an Evo 2 and I thought it fit great, then I got to sit in an Evo and I liked the tighter feel in the sholders. I drove about an hour and a half south to go to a store that had them all set-up to sit in. It was worth the trip. Don't impalse buy a seat, if you don't like it you are stuck with it. More then anything else you buy for the car, take your time and make sure you like a particular seat before you buy MHO. I looked at seats for about 4 monthes before I bought FWIW.

I'll say this as well I like the Sparco's a lot better then the Corbeau's.
