Since I put in the '85 T-Bird TC buckets into my '65, I really dont have any need for the original normal black vinyl '65 fronts.

The drivers side is BRAND NEW upholstery, excellent condition, and the passengers side is in very good condition as well (no tears, maybe one small one in the back - i dont remember right this second, again, nothing MAJOR AT ALL!!!)
The springs and foam are comfy and supportive as they can be still. (springs will be cleaned up a bit but still in good condition)

So what is the going rate for the pair???
Im thinking $150 - no more than that for sure, but hopefully not much less
What do yall think?????
thanks have a good one

Ice,
You are pretty much right on target. But, it depends on who wants to buy the seats and what they are willing to give for them. You may also consider hanging on to them in the event you decide to sell the Mustang. You never know. Just my two cents worth.

Dave n Terri,
I WOULD hang onto them, however since I had to customize the seat tracks to fit on the T-Bird buckets, I wouldnt be able to use them on the original '65 seats anyways (which means $50 for new tracks later on)
Plus, I dont intend on sellin my car anytime soon AND there is a Mustang salvage yard 10 minutes away with tooooooons of seats that I could throw back into BeeBop for cheap down the line
(and I need some $$$ now too ) haha
thanks, have a good one
Im lovin your "somewhat new" fastback! i love the color

I used Ebay to get rid of my old parts. For the most part I got good money for everything. The more people that want it the better the price.

Thanks Ice. We also love the Dark Ivy Green Metallic paint on Ivy. Hard to believe that it is an original Ford color for 1965. We are also suprised that we don't see more Mustangs with the same paint.

In all honesty Dave, that color (the dark green ivy) along with jet black, a dark dark metallic blue, and a dark metallic charcoal are the 4 color choices I have for whenever BeeBop is going to need to be painted (hopefully not TOO soon! haha)
have a good one
