Would love a set of these in Black...

PM'd you. But the 993 sport seats are much more difficult to find. The 944 sport seats are identical except for the horizontal stitch pattern which, frankly, I prefer over the 993 curved stitch pattern. But if you need period correct I understand.

Try sending a pm to Potent951turbo. I remembered he was selling a set of black soft backs several months ago.

993/964 stuff just finds rudy (Opo) now. you could drop him a PM and see if he might let you know if he hears about something that he's going to pass on. couldn't hurt.

Don't worry Nam! I'm taking great care of her! Great seats btw - if I can imagine being swaddled, this is probably how I would imagine it to be.

nice combo!! just love that body. i owned an '88 lachssilber/gray, 61k miles when i sold it. had a rare factory glass sunroof. loved that car - learned to autox and run DEs in that car. later went on to instruct for multiple clubs and race scca. have to credit that car for pushing me into most of that. unfortunately, mine was totally in T10 @ summit point by the buyer not long after.

Wow what a story!

Sad to hear of the cars untimely demise as the numbers of those cars are dwindling down fast and even the rattiest ones are worth a premium these days..

Hello, trying to figure out how to ship internationally
If I figure a way, or you know of someone with a UPS freight account.....I have a set I will sell of the soft back sport seats for 993 in black, that needs upholster.
They need upholster because of the fire I had in my workshop and the seats were in a side storage room, but the wooden roof brittled to pieces and fell on everything, check picture.
I have the original pliers and stainless hooks to redo the upholstery, I can send with.
The upholstery has to be changed and the sponges washed and sun dried because of the smoke odor.
The seats are in a better shape than in the picture now,
If anyone has the courage to redo them, we'll work out a price

Nam is right, I was selling a set of heated 964 heated sport seats a few months ago. Those seats are gone but I have a TON of sport seats so I'm checking if I have any 993 styled ones this weekend.
