Eddie’s 1964 Chevy Corvette Convertible with Procar by SCAT Rally XL seats was recently featured in Super Chevy Magazine!

Being that this Corvette is a convertible, the interior is practically as noticeable—and thus important—as the exterior of the vehicle. To start things off, Roberts installed Procar 1000 Series seats covered in Bloodhound Red leather from Relicate. The rest of the interior; including the center console, dash and door panels; were also covered in the same Bloodhound Red leather.

We were honored to sponsor the 2019 Dix Performance North Trade Show last month in San Pedro, CA! We had the opportunity to show Dix’s VIP customers around the SCAT Enterprises factory and talk shop with them.

Take a look at the recap video below:

Engine Builder Magazine featured a 408 cid Ford Windsor stroker engine as their Engine of the Week recently. This build is by Coast High Performance and is running a SCAT forged crankshaft and SCAT forged H-beam rods.

To start the build, the 351 Windsor roller block was cleaned in a hot tank and then bead blasted. The main girdle got put on and then it got align honed it to make sure the main caps were set up for the proper clearance and dimensions. After the mains were done, the next step was to put the block on the CNC machine to square deck it to make sure both sides were even. Then the shop bored the block to 4.030˝ and did a torque plate diamond hone.

Test out Procar by SCAT’s seats firsthand at the next Pomona Swap Meet in Pomona, California, on Sunday, March 3. From 5 am-2 pm, shop from vendors and view classic cars at the Pomona Fairplex, located at 1101 W. McKinley Avenue.

Procar by SCAT seats were used in 4-Wheel & Off-Road Magazine’s latest Week to Wheeling project: a 1997 Jeep Wrangler TJ.

Then, it was simply a matter of stripping the stock seats and floor brackets out of the Jeep to install the Procar by SCAT seating. The Procar seats feature supply vinyl that will last a long, long time in this vehicle despite our willingness to run a top and doors. And their firm side bolsters and supportive foam are a huge upgrade over the factory seating. With a TIG-welded steel frame and easy-to-adjust one-tough rclining, no matter which Four Wheeler Network staffer hops in this Jeep to cover events or to just have a fun day wheeling will have no problem getting comfortable.

Procar by SCAT seats were used in this awesome 1969 Camaro Z/28 build featured in Super Chevy Magazine. This was restored by Kent Kennedy and took three years to complete.

Inside, Kennedy wanted to retain as much of the ’69 Camaro vibe as possible. ‘I tried to stay as close to the original as I could, other than converting it to black,’ he said. ‘It was just too much blue.’
