    I would eventually like my seats in black. The rear is original '74 Comet and the front are Mustang buckets which to me look similar to the Grabber buckets posted earlier. Would your bucket covers work for me?

    Black covers done as original are $300.00 for the fronts and $200.00 for the rears.

    I can make the Mustang seats look like the Comet seats, covers would be $300.00 done in black for the fronts,

    Do you have a pattern for the LDO buckets? Sometime in the future I will be wanting to recover mine.

    I have the patterns for the 76/77 LDO seats but not any others.

    I have no idea what year seats I have, but do know they are the LDO's. I'll get with you when I do get ready to redo them and see what can be done. Thanks Fred.

    Can you do a set for the rear seat only, in a primer-grey vinyl? I'd also need a few yards of material so I can make my self some door panels.

    I can do them in any color vinyl or cloth.

    I need 73/74 grabber rear seat in black and enough material to have a local person to make covers for my 89 mustang seats.

    Hello,

    I purchased two high back seats from a Torino. They look very similar to the high back maverick or mustang seats, although these do not tilt forward. How can I tell if the Maverick covers will work? Should I jut remove the covers I have and send them to you to match? I do have the rear stock seat. I would need door panels also. How much?

    The Maverick covers won't fit. try Dearborn Classics, they have a good selection of trim covers and may have them for the Torino.
