kats Posted August 31, 2022 Share #1 Posted August 31, 2022 Now this set of seats is available , only 12 hours left. This is Mr.Sudo’s work , I think his work is the best in the world. Not only using original materials from the manufacturer , but also his technique of sawing, shaping , creating a better support and better comfort. It is a real craftsmanship. I can say they are ‘better than new’. It is very unusual his seats are available on auction sites . Unless you find a set of super mint condition original seats , you will never wish to sell them . Mr. Sudo can do for both 1970 fat seat back with rubber-belt seat bottom and later slim seat back with spring-tension seat bottom. This set as you can see , September 1971 and later ‘slim seat back with spring-tension seat bottom . Mr. Sudo is no more making S30 seats , so , if someone want nice seats, I think it is a good buy . Paying for an original radio or an original dash are so expensive today , but how about seats ? I don’t think people care about it seriously , so the price will be seemed high at the moment.

SteveJ Posted August 31, 2022 Share #2 Posted August 31, 2022 You can certainly tell those seats were assembled and re-covered by someone with excellent skills. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Patcon , the winning bid was 315000 yen , the buy it now was 440000 yen . Bidding rule is a bit different from eBay . I think it is a god price for those nice seats . Now JPY is weak against US dollar, it might be a good timing for foreigners. But I think people in overseas don’t need to pay such a big money for seats , do they ? Or if there is an exceptional high quality of S30 seats , it might be different. Kats Edited September 1, 2022 by kats 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patcon Posted September 1, 2022 Share #6 Posted September 1, 2022 So $2250 sold; BIN was $3144. Serious money for seats but they look perfect. Just like new. That seems like a reasonable price for what NOS seats would cost 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
