1964 Daytona Bucket Seats

The pleats on the '64 Daytona buckets run "east-west". IIRC the Hawk
pleats run "north-south". If you're not planning to re-cover the seats,
it may look a bit strange.

I'll save JP a reply here... He has some nice covers for the seats.

Maybe that's why the Daytona buckets seem more comfortable than the Hawk
buckets<G>.

Do you know where I can buy a Lark bucket seat floor plate?

Usually off a parts car and sold with the buckets since the seats are
worthless without it.
