Don't let them sit on the top bow.  Instead, put blankets or towels on the seat cushion and back.  Then put a milk crate (two if for two people) on that with more cushioning on top of the crates to make it softer for the passengers rear(s).  Feet on the floor - not on your seat.

Later, JR

I have run my Corvairs, early and late, in local parades for many years and 
have never had a problem with any of them running hot.  All of them have 
full underside shrouding, thermostats and doors along with tempreatures of 
over 100 degrees for the July 4th parades and have never given a problem. 
Corvairs simply don't overheat at low speeds, ever!
