Seat Identification

So I have the elusive bucket seat tracks and now keep my eye out for a suitable pair of seats. This popped up on my feed but the seller does not know what car it is from (claims 70's cougar or mustang but google search does not seem to support that statement). Can you guys give your thoughts on what these are from? Thank you.

 

69 Mustang? They have the right look and the latch release looks right too.

I think you are correct, good eye for the details!

If this is the case; are these are a direct bolt on for the bucket seat tracks that I have out of a '72 Maverick?

 

They look like Mustang-II seats to me. I've never seen seats that look like that in a '69 Mustang...

 

Headrest on the M2 look different. His look a lot like what I posted but I have never paid much attention to the seats in the 69 other than what I have seen browsing the web.

 

They've been recovered but are '69 Mustang seats, maybe '70 as well.

 

1970 high back bucket seats from a Mustang, have the seat back latches down low.

 

Interesting. These are the seats I've always see in '69 Mustangs...

 

I immediately thought 1969 Mustang Coupe when I saw them. The inserts are non-factory. Should be vinyl.



If you like them, measure the bolt pattern on the seat bottom. It was a pretty standard size for many Ford bucket seats, perhaps 30 years worth of many models of Fords. The common pattern is that the bolt holes should be 13 inches front-to-back and the width should be 14 inches between holes.

 

It did say coupe on the upholstry ad, possible the sports roof had the style you posted. The seats he has look like the same design as the early cars with headrests added.

 

I've asked the fellow to measure bolt pattern and will advise what he comes up with.

 

Those seats are the exception.

1969 high back without headrests are Mach 1 only, 1969 Cougar Eliminators also got that high back seat without movable headrest in 1969.
Look where the seat back release latch is located. 1969 in this location.
1970 Mustang and Cougar bucket seats the seat back release is down by the hinge.

 

They look like they would work great in a Maverick (with Maverick tracks). All Mavericks should have come that way from the factory (at least in the 2-doors), and Ford already had the seats. No need to design new ones. Can't stand the bench seat...

 

Confirmed bolt pattern is 13 inch x 14 inch. Seller says they were in a 71 Maverick before Drag Car conversion. Took this poor picture of what's on them now.
