    if you like buckets and you are not a purest and you are going to have to reupholster the seats you have anyway... You could find a set of Maverick Brackets and get a nice set of seats from a junk yard out of just about any ford with bucket seats.. I like the mid 80's escort GT bucket seats and have seen them recovered to match the maverick interior and they are comfy and look good to boot... I would love to have a set of 88 Bronco II low back buckets reupholstered and installed in my 73 and I prolly will do that one day.... Those BroncoII bucket seats are still the most comfortable (for me) seats I have ever driven in.... I have a bad back and I could drive that little BroncoII all day and it never made my back hurt.. Idunno why but those seats just fit my backside..

    Hi,

    LDO is a term you will only hear about when talking about Mavs/Comets, so no shame in not knowing what it is ...

    Luxury Decor Option

    Cushy seats that came out in 1973 (I think ... might be earlier) ...

    That's what I was going to say too. Benches are a must if you're not married (y)

    After wards... eh.... sit on your own side.

    Wear your seatbelt and you won't have that problem. :hmmm:

    If the ice and snow ever melt I am going to put a set of 88 Lincoln Mark VII lsc or 88 Cougar seats in mine.
