Sparco Office Chair converted into SHO?

[CTOESHO]

Does anyone know if a "Sparco" office chair can be safetly installed into a car? Are these actual racing seats just mounted on legs? I got a deal on a Sparco office chair and I want to see if I can put it in the SHO. It looks like it's mounted by 4 nuts. Thanks.

Thank you for your valuable information. Anyways, obviously it can be done, but I do not want to risk my life and end up though the windshield if I slam on my brakes. Can someone else with relevant knowledge please chime in if they know if these seats are for real. I checked the seat and there is no information regarding a serial number or labeling of any sort.

If Sparco uses the same link ups Cobra Seats they have custom fit ones for 125 bucks. Otherise if you can get away with it boling the seats down on the "race" brackets works so long as you and everyone that will drive your car is the same size.
Corbeau also makes rails for the Taurus.
