Contact Steve Sunshine and check if he’s still producing the Ken Miles Comp Seats.
Ken Miles Alloy Comp Seat Special
I’ve one of this seats on my car and I love it.
It is customized on the sizing you personally need and therefore it fits perfect.
I use it on normal street driving and at hill climbing races and I’ll never take it out of my car again.

Kurt,
Your Superformance FIA replica is one I have always admired. I'm quite 'chuffed' that you're following my build.
Cheers,

Thanks to all who threw their 2 pennies in. I decided to get the kirkey vintage and replace just the drivers seat. I couldn't pass up the price point and for me they're a good compromise visually. The great thing is you can order them in different hip widths. I received the seat today and it fits like a glove...I especially like the wedge that's built into the cover that goes between my thighs...

1963 Nassau Speed Week. Not a later FIA Cobra but a good study none the less, it is a team LeMans Replica...

1964 Daytona, late FIA team Cobra. Not a great photo but it is a good shot of the seat back...looks like someone needed some extra cushion!

I think the rusty vise-grips in the lower left of that last photo is pretty classic...
