E21 Recaro seats & sheepskins - $$ REDUCED

[BarryA]

Price: $850

Location: Fair Oaks CA (Sacramento area)

Description:

Update - for those who wanted to see what shape the original factory vinyl was in under the sheepskins, I've posted a couple of additional photos with the sheepskins removed.  The patches that are visible in the added photos were sewn into the seats to protect the fresh foam from chafing when the sheepskins were installed - there were no split seams or other damage to the center panels (either back or bottom on either seat) so there were no repairs made to those panels.

 

Pair of E21 Recaros & high-end custom fitted “Ramshead” sheepskins with mounting brackets & factory headrests – ready to drop into an ‘02.

 

Seats completely rebuilt in late spring of 2002 (foam replaced, new Aardvark suspension straps, etc, vinyl upholstery seams resewn and damaged areas patched).  High density foam wedge added under bottom cushion to raise the seating surface about 1” (I’m 6’2” & weighed about 235 at that time - the bottom cushion was too low and the seats were too narrow across the rear of the bolsters for me to be comfortable for long periods), foam can easily be lifted out.  

 

Custom fitted Navy blue sheepskins installed by Ramshead in Sonoma CA & seats installed in my ’69 sunroof prior to driving to O’fest in Colorado in summer 2002 (sheepskins cost a bit less than $700) .  Car was driven about 14K miles after seats installed & was always garaged; seats removed before car was sold about 3 years ago; have been stored covered in my home office since.

 

Sheepskins are a near perfect color match to ’02 navy blue vinyl (very dark blue) – would be best in a car with that color interior, although they probably wouldn’t look out of place in a black interior, either.  Prefer to sell seats and sheepskins together, might separate.

 

Please note:  Black vinyl upholstery under the sheepskins is the original E21 factory material that’s been repaired and patched – it’s in serviceable condition, but the appearance is not such that most people would be willing to use the seats with the sheepskins removed without replacing the upholstery.

$850 obo complete - local pickup preferred, delivery possible in the greater Sacramento / SF Bay area - buyer pays crating & shipping if shipped

   Thanks to a recent heart attack, I'm having to speed up a long-planned downsize to a much smaller house and must clear out a 40 year accumulation of parts (there won’t be space to move them to a new place, and there are medical expenses to offset as well).   Because of the wide variety of parts involved, listings have been posted on multiple web boards (Pelican Parts, The Samba, Steve’s Nova Site, 2002 FAQ, etc) and I may not have time to check every board for responses several times per day.

   Parts have been priced on a “best guess” basis – if you see something of interest but feel the asking price is too high, please forward an offer – everything listed has to go.
