I just bought a 1984 mazda rx-7

and really love it.

But, my driver seat is rusted off from the floor.

What should i do and where can i find another seat for a good price?

depends on how bad the rust is. if it's only rusted from the cabin out then you can cut out the bad portion and weld in new sheet metal. if it's rusted through from under your car that'll be a lot more complicated and a little less safe......
