    My 72 came with a bench and i put buckets out of my 75 comet, the brackets should work youll just have to add spacers to level them out.

    1970 Maverick floorpans were never designed for bucket seats, unlike the 1971-1977 floorpans. All that means is that what ever you mount in there will require some custom spacers and mounts. NOTHING will be a straight "bolt in".

    here is a unrelated question do you have the tracks for the 76 seats and are they for the tall cat hump on the passenger side
