I have a set of TAN LDO bucket seats from a 74 Maverick. I want to use them in my BLUE 77 Maverick with a bench seat. I would like to know if anybody can help me with the code number from a BLUE set of LDO seats. If I have a number that was used in Mavericks I would then order the vinyl and have a local upholstery shop make them up. Thanks
The blue, was a light, silvery blue, I might have some pictures somewhere..I can dig out my ordering book once my wife wakes up from her nap.
predfan2001 had a parts Comet that had these seats in it. Thread is HERE: http://www.mmb.maverick.to/threads/cant-afford-a-second-car-so-im-gonna-build-on.65584/page-18
Thanks Dave / Paul I see the picture of the color. Maybe I can pick from that. The sample pictures are very small from the upholstery suppliers, but guess I can order a few samples. I do have the time as this is a winter project. John
Unless you alter/change the floor....you will need 1975-1977 bucket seat rails. The 1974 seats will have bucket seat tracks that won't work in a 1977.
Thanks Craig I also saved the floor and brackets from my 74 donor car. The cat hump in my 77 will go away.
According to this: http://home.comcast.net/~petebre/maverick/decode/1974.html the color code for the 74 blue LDO interior is PE. Looks like it changes to PB in 75+. Maybe this will help find the correct material. If your upholstery shop can't find it, SMS Auto Fabrics will likely have it: http://www.smsautofabrics.com
