Hi Bob,

To my knowledge there aren't any direct bolt in seats for a Corvair, they all take a certain amount of adaptation.  The Camaro is definitely different, as are all the RWD cars I've seen since there is the tunnel for the driveshaft so the floor isn't flat.  In general, FWD cars are a much easier swap since they generally have flat floors, but even there the bolt patterns vary somewhat so you should expect to open up mounting holes or need new feet.  I'm currently swapping a set of '02 Neon R/T seats into our '66, the tracks are close to the same width and the feet are riveted on, so I just have to fab up some new feet out of T-bar.
