Here are a couple of pic's of seats that I hope to be able to come close too.

here an update on the seat.

The plate is for the head rest, I'm hoping it looks like the tan seat up above

Looking good Ralph! Keep up the good work...

Here is a link for the seat vents-- I have never seen them offered in chrome here however. These are probably going to be brass, but you can have them chromed before installing them.

It been a while but i finished the seat with the help of my wife, She took the old cover and did her magic to get me by till the seat is re cover. Due to the wonderfull weather in California I got the car out today and had a good time.

Seat looks great! I should fwd those pics over to OMP USA headquarters here in Miami to show them there's an interest in a sportsman style seat to add to their vintage seat line.

i bought mine from YAJ, they do NOT install in 15 minutes like the auction said. after an hour of grinding and testing, i finally got mine in, and the really do totally change the whole car. My Hakosuka actually drives straight, and when i brake it doesnt pull. its crazy how something so simple can change so much. im betting that your front struts are identical to the fronts on ours. and the RCA's i bought said they will fit bluebird, kenmeri, hakosuka, and maybe 86?? i cant remember now, but they are around $125ish i think? (with the yen rate) i would have to look to be sure.
