Handmade around a welded lightweight steel tube frame, the TransAm combines high lateral support, a low seating position and Duralastic suspension to create a classic competition-style seat suitable for restoration, restomod and historic motorsport-inspired cars.

This version is designed for cars using a 5-point harness and features the required seatbelt cut-outs with finishing rosettes.

Inspired by Classic Trans-Am Racing

The Trans-Am race series brought together some of the most recognisable performance cars of the period, including Mustang, Cougar, Corvette, Camaro, Porsche, Challenger, Datsun, Charger, AMC, Triumph and Jaguar.

Many competition cars used lightweight fibreglass, alloy or specially fabricated racing seats to provide drivers with greater support during demanding race conditions.

The Retro Trim TransAm recreates this purposeful appearance while providing a seat suitable for today's classic car enthusiast.

High Lateral Support

The TransAm features raised side bolsters extending towards the front of the seat to provide increased lateral support.

This helps hold the driver more securely during enthusiastic driving while maintaining the distinctive appearance of a traditional 1960s and 1970s competition seat.

Designed for a 5-Point Harness

This version incorporates dedicated openings for routing the waist/lap belts of a 5-point harness.

Seatbelt cut-out rosettes are included, providing a neat finished edge around the harness openings while maintaining the classic appearance of the seat.

Lightweight Steel Tube Frame

The seat is handmade using a welded lightweight steel tube frame, providing a strong foundation while retaining the lightweight philosophy of traditional competition seating.

Fire-resistant foam and Duralastic suspension belts provide a firm but comfortable seating position, helping make the TransAm suitable for longer road journeys as well as historic motorsport-inspired applications.

Low Seating Position

The TransAm seat itself is non-adjustable and is designed to position the driver as low as practical within the vehicle.

Final seat height and angle are determined during installation, allowing the mounting arrangement to be selected to suit the driver and vehicle.

An optional tilting bracket is available where improved access to rear seating is required.

Have Your Seats Upholstered Locally

Supplying the TransAm as a seat frame kit allows the upholstery to be completed by your preferred local trimmer or interior restoration specialist.

This gives you the freedom to choose leather, vinyl, fabric or period-style materials and match the seats to an existing classic interior or create a completely bespoke specification.

Kit Includes

  • Seat frame
  • Duralastic suspension belts
  • Side foam
  • Back foam
  • Seat cushion
  • Headrest
  • 5-point harness cut-out rosettes
