Default fastback seats

soo the seats in my 70 coupe are out of a fast back.

my question is are fast back seats really that uncomfortable???

seems like mine sit way to far foward where the wheel touches my thies. im 6'3 210 pounds.

they also dont recline is that correct?

is the crome lever on the side really just to collapse the seat?

i do plan on getting a diffrent steering wheel so i think that will take care of that but damn i cant imagine driving long distance in those seats.

the lever is only to fold them forward. im prolly not as big as you, but i still dont think they are that bad... a smaller diameter steering wheel would definitely help.

im 6'4 190lbs and VERY comfortable in my 70's seats. Course, no matter, I will be replacing my 70s seats with 06 GT leather seats in a month anyway

i'm like mine but I'm only 5'8" or so (for now, still growing ). The steering wheel does hit my thigh though when I have my foot on the brake, so I can see that being taller that must suck.
