914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Who made these seats?
Posted by: montoya 73 2.0 Jun 22 2013, 08:32 PM
Can someone tell me who made these seats? Are they worth re-covering? They were in the 73 when my pops got her but he didn't like them so we installed stock seats. I brought them with the car when he gave it to me and they have been sitting in the corner of the backyard (were covered with plastic) behind some totes.

Look close to a scheel seat. Yes they are worth recovering.
Here is a scheel seat I had that I sold at Stodddard's swap meet this year.

I was looking at pictures of Scheel's and do they have a stamp or insignia on them? edit: Thanks Rob! These have what looks like a crown on the button.
I was going to just have them both recovered on the cheap and mount them to my work desk Craftsman stools.

Not the best pic, but a scheel emblem on the seat I had.

I should probably take them out of the elements (snow, rain and sun) and put them in the garage! It also looks like the head rests are on backwards? do I just pull?

Off to the garage to make room and then to the deck I go!

you are the proud owner of a pair of Koenigs!! The only caveat is that they are tight if you have a waist exceeding 38 inches. here is pic of my passenger side; keep us posted if and when you get them recovered.
