A tilt column is a real plus. It gets the steering wheel away from your chest.
I fitted one to my 70 model , it made a the car much better.
Try to get along to the runs, you will get lots of ideas.

I sat in a 79 with the clamshell seats, it was more comfortable & felt a bit lower but I know the missus would hate them as the seats can't be put more upright, they have only 1 position with respect to recline. Not a problem for me but she likes to sit more upright than I do.

The later seats the angle can be adjusted by trial & error with fitting spacers under rear rail bolts. I fitted them to my 78 they are like chalk & cheese compared to the earlier seat . Out of our 4 cars Subaru, x-trail 78Vet  & 87 vet with recaro's the 78 is preferred touring car by my wife with a bad back. Buy the shells & tracks or parts of until you have a complete set then buy brand new foam & trim mounted ready to fit dont much around with old foam etc retimming. I have a couple of spare seat backs.
