Ken, I think Sam had link to site that showed how to fit late model mustang seats in a 68. All they did was re-use the old seat tracks, and fitted them to the new seats.https://mustangsandmore.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/013919.html http://www.stephanies-mustang.com/seats.htm ------------------ oddly obsessed with big scoops on little Mustangs 65 coupe 351w C4 Big Boss 429 hood scoop,8" 3.40 TracLoc.

Well, what do you think ?? I couldn't pass up the deal (awesome price). The seats are in great shape (as you can see). Now I have to see how they look in the '65 ?!?!?

That's exactly what I want too, so I guess I'm gonna have to start calling some area boneyards. Good luck on fitting them, but where there's a will, there's a way.------------------ William 68 Coupe "Restomod in Progress"

He is talking about doing a rear seat delete. I'll find out for you whenever I get around to picking up mine !!! It's a long way for him to ship it though, have you looked on EBay ?? ------------------ i before e except in BUDWEISER !!!

Everyday... If the price was reasonable and the seats look good I would have no problem paying for shipping. The one I bought on ebay had glass all over it and was shreded to pieces during shipping.

Oh BTW the fronts fit great. You have to drill a hole in the bottom of the seat to fit the 65 rails though. I can snap pics if requested...it's pretty strait forward.
