DannyS Posted February 25, 2019 Report Share Posted February 25, 2019 Hi, My Spitfire Mk3 currently has Spit 1500 seats fitted and I would like to go original if anyone has a pair for sale. Thanks Danny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted February 26, 2019 Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 Danny, they are getting hard to find now. Have you tried the "usual suspects" ie spit graveyard, and are spitbits still about? Otherwise you will have to be patient and wait for a set to appear on your favourite auction site. Or buy mine? all recovered/foams etc. Come complete with a very nice MK3 spit.....

s99sdp Posted April 11, 2019 Report Share Posted April 11, 2019 A pair of seats just finished on a well known auction site for £476.00. I'm still dizzy thinking about that figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyS Posted April 11, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2019 Yep, far too pricy for me to justify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanMi Posted April 12, 2019 Report Share Posted April 12, 2019 If they were the seats are saw they said they were just recovered so with covers at £240 the pair base foams £140 and the squab kit 60 which comes to about £440 that price is less than you would pay to have your seats recovered.

Maggie Posted April 18, 2019 Report Share Posted April 18, 2019 When you do find a pair, make sure that they have the original catches still attached - these are like the proverbial rocking horse manure. And you will need to change the seat rails too - again these are hard to find now in good condition/complete.Neither are impossible though if you are patient.

ChrisC Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Are the catches the little items that seat on the back of the upright on the seat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
