    I have just gotten my hands on a 73 Ford Maverick. Its my first car I do not know much but im needing to find new seats or seat covers that will look good in it but still look like the orignal seats. Was wondering if anyone could help me find out where to get these. It is still in its orginal Yellow with the black stripes on it.

    Thanks,
    Brandon

    Your best bet is just to get the seats recovered if u still have them, find original grabber seats insnt the easyiest thing to do and probably cost more then you want to pay just take them in you will be happy with the results and will not have to pay for the seat and something thats been recovered when u can just recover yours.

    Ok, Thank you. Should I recover just the front or do both front and back seats at same time? Its a 2 door and Back seats dont get used much but they do need it.

    It will probably be cheaper to get them all done at the same time than a 2 different times.
    I just got a quote to have mine recovered and new foam put in.
    300.00 bucks for everything

    I would chances are if you just do the frount they wont match because the seats fade and dirt and other things happen and they wont match, and if its the money that worrys you its not as bad as most people think 300 sounds a bit much but it depends on what you want i just got mine done and if i wanted cloth it was something like 210 and leather a little over 320 but it depends on what you want.
