Just saw a video of the new Meyers Manx and the seats look like modified 914 seats. They might nice replacements for stockers.

And GM pattern wheels. Lower sides for modern americans to get in easier. Looks like it got bigger too, no more shortened pan for the sharp U turns. Some things should stay in the 70's.

Possibly inspired by 914 seats, but those aren't 914 seats. No 914 seat would hold up to the upper seat belt mount being on the seat...

That looks a heck of a lot like an AI video.

Yes. An actual 914 fiberglass seat as a seatbelt anchor would fail in any collision above 5 mph. Of course, on a prototype vehicle, it could be just for show.
