See http://www.kirkeyracing.com/home.html. I've got their "Economy" seat
in my Midget (look under Street Stock) and I'm quite pleased with it. It
was very inexpensive at about $130, including the cover. I think you can
get it even cheaper from Racer Wholesale or one of the other discount
mailorder houses. The website includes "shop drawings" so you can get
every dimension.
I've found it to be very comfortable and it really holds me in. It is
not easy to get into (wedgie city, man), which may be exacerbated by
putting it in a small hardtop like a GT6. Also, it isn't very pretty or
period looking, if that matters to you.
