914World.com _ FS/WTB: 914 Parts _ Scheel Sport Seats for sale

Posted by: pat9146 Nov 15 2012, 06:35 PM

Attached ImageThese seats came out of my 914LE. I am going back to the original seats. These are replacement seats that will use the current seat frames for original 914 seats. These seats are in very good shape. There is a scrape on the top right of the driver's seat. I am only able to post one pic due to my file size. That is the only flaw on the material that I could find. I am only able to post one pic due to my file size. The seats are leather and I believe a corduroy for the cushions. These seats will retail new for just under $1000 each. Why not get a pair of very good Scheel Classic seats for a huge discount. I have described the seats as best I could.

WTF.gif Mmmmm, OK. Why not RESIZE your photos so you can post all the detail images you want. Those inserts look like feedsack burlap, not Scheel corduroy.

Thanks for the help. Not very techi here. You could be right about the burlap. I was trying to find something about the seats and the closest material listed was corduroy. I will go with burlap. I am not trying to misrepresent the seats.

that's a fair deal on the seats - real Scheel badges !!

i think you will find that the black material is vinyl - not leather - 914 Scheels were oem vinyl

the fabric you show is clearly not burlap, but it is some aftermarket stuff that is not original to the period, so it tends to degrade value

- you may find some real burlap sling material in the undersides of original Scheels, and by now it probably is rotten unless it was also replaced

yes, I have an original Scheel - and also an old oem Scheel catalog with the period optional fabrics shown

fwiw
the big problem in selling them is that they cost a ton to ship - they have to go by volume, not weight, so figure $150 or more , each - shipping

I twice bought, sold & shipped a 911 Scheel - about a year ago - I had to discount my price not to exceed $600 shipped

and also consider your competition - $595 each - new - www.classiccarseats.com/nurburging-seats-

MUCH better photos... those are hard to find Scheel 300s (w/914 headrests) not the narrow 914 Scheel. I know, I own several sets.
Desirable and correct for BMW CSLs and early 911s, you might wanna post them to the E9 forums & the Bird. Price is very fair... GLWTS.

For comparison, here's the interior of my unrestored CSL:

Larry thank you for your input. I wasn't sure of the material. Sounds like I am still not sure of it. Yes shipping will be more than the average package. The site you noted is where I was getting my information and thought the material was the same as was on my seats and was guessing on the cushions.
