The most comfortable of the 8 Vettes that I've owned was a 65 with bucket seats that were really bench seats that looked like they were cut in half. The mid-year seats were not nearly as low as the current models and I thought they were more comfortable. As you got to the 68-72's the seats were a little lower and not as comfortable. I loved fixing things on the cars. On today's models, I wouldn't know where to start to repair them...plus, would void the warranty! Good luck!
I am looking at 2010 - 2013 C6 models as these look to be good choices for a daily driver. Thanks.
