I'd look for better Firebird seats, if the PO had not fixed the seat mounts on blocks of wooden 4x4s, which are also splitting. So that whole approach is a wash.
I know I'm KIA in a high speed collision.
When I was in college, my Dad let me use a '61 Mercedes 190. That car had the most comfortable seats ever. Especially on long drives. Passenger front seat would recline to level with the back seat, so it made a great bed. Always impressed with the quality of Mercedes seats.
