I sent an e-mail also to my local technical director asking if the Kirkey seat would be ok if properly installed . I was told that the rules did not say "approved" aftermarket seats so the seat I selected should be ok. I was asked to send in a picture of the seat I wanted to use which I immeadiately did. Haven't heard back from them since I sent in the picture. I guess they may be refining the rule change.
The Kirkey seat will not even remotely look stock in my 64 Savoy but I like the idea of being a whole lot safer in the Kirkey seat rather than sliding around on a 50 year old bench seat. Being able to move a lot of weight to the back of the car is nice too.
