Anyone know a comparable from another kit or aftermarket/resin of the regular 1971 cuda interior seat like in the link below; the red one at the bottom? From what I understand, the interior in the Revell 71 cuda is actually the “leather” option more seen in a Gran Coupe or special order.

I don't think those seats exist in scale. The Revell/ Monogram 1/24 Hemi Cuda seats were the "leather" pattern, same for the original MPC annual seats. The Jo Han Pro Stock 'Cuda came with racing buckets only. I'm not 100% sure about the Testors Diecast kit or the 1/24 cars from the "Mints", but I think they also had the "leather" seats.   

That being said, I always wanted to try to make them from existing kit seats- the patterns look very simple, mostly "flat" fabric panels.  

Revell could do worse than to come up with a spinoff of their new '70 Hemi Cuda tool, revised to a '71 'Cuda with the standard interior. While they are at it, they could fix that body, too!

I didn’t think about diecast and will check those out. I thought the same thing though, looks simple enough and might be able to create some from scratch or at least easy enough to 3D print. Let you know if I tackle it.

Yea kinda of a pain and i am having a hard time fixing the wheel wells; they just didn’t even put the wheel lip towards the front half.
