Where to buy new bucket seats

I am fixing up a 78 Z28 T-topped Camaro for my 16 year old daughter, the seats are trashed frame and all and I am have a difficult time finding some decent after market bucket seats.

Where have you guys been buying new bucket seats?

I would like them to be light weight, comfortable, and safe.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Try www.kristkustoms.com. I don't know how much you want to spend, but Shawn sells a nice bucket seat.

He does most defiantly put together some very nice bucket seat, I would very much like to own a machine nice enough to have some kristkustoms seat in it, but not a 78 camaro, the seats would be worth more than the car.

I was thinking of something like this for my 74 Nova SS. Functional and I've heard they are pretty comfortable.

You may want to shop around for prices. I just knew summit had the product so I could show you the seat and a ballpark price.

Thanks topdogger that is more like what I am looker for. Myself and my daughter both looked on summit racing for bucket seat and for some reason missed those ones, all we could find are racing seat.

Any other option out there?

Here's the rest of the search results. I forgot to add this link in. Summit refers to these seats as sport seats.

Thats all I know of for aftermarket sport/bucket seats at a reasonable price.
