131 interior

[131 mania]

Hello everyone!! I am new to the forum. I am in the process of rebuilding a 1977 131 miriafiori. I would like to replace  the front seats with something else. I am 6' 2" and 230 pounds. I need a little more room. Anyone have any suggestions? Does anyone have pic's of their interiors. I could use some ideas.

Thanks in advance!!

Hi 131 Mania and welcome to the forum.

Here are a few photos as requested - Not sure if they will be much use - The 131 cabin is not renowned for being spacious...or the seats for being long lasting!





I have no idea how feasible this but perhaps seats from other Fiats may have similar mountings but may provide the additional space required??

We'd love to see photos of your car - even if it is a work in progress.

Cheers

Wow!! Your interior is BEAUTIFUL!!!  Are those original seats? Just recovered I assume? I will get some pic's up as soon as I can. I am in the U.S.  Fiats are not very plentiful here. Especially not 131/Brava's. I am having a hard time finding parts. I am looking for an exhaust header if you have any ideas. I have a 2000 block and an 1800 head.
Thanks in advance!!
