Hey y'all, first time posting in this section. Recently got offered a V8 Foxbody for a really decent price that needs some love. It currently has some blown out no name aftermarket seats in it at the moment and would like to put something in that's at least not falling apart. I'm seriously not picky. All I want is for them to be in one piece and be comfortable enough to sit in for at least an hour. Tears, rips, missing trim, all okay. Currently my budget is hovering around 150- maybe 200 max. My wallet would appreciate less, I have two thirsty V8 children to feed now.

 

Located in Orlando, thank you.

I got a set of foxbody red leather seats that I'd give you for free.. I'm located in CT, and could maybe ship em. I would like to keep the sliders though. They are in good shape, other than a seam split on the drivers seat bottom, and a tear on the seat top.

I have a pair of front seats that, maybe, came from an '89 LX. Grey fabric, on sliders, with headrests. No funks, stains, or odors. One seat has, naturally, a cigarette hole or something similar. Comfy for their age, worn but not blown out. 

I don't have a backseat but it doesn't look like you need one.

If only I was closer that would be perfect honestly.

I'm not finding a match for any Foxbody seats that look like that but honestly if they bolt in, I really wouldn't care I'll rock em

In reply to ExcessKuma :

They came out of the '89 when I bought it, that's all I know of their provenance. They bolt right up, no apparent modification of the tracks. If the car were a daily instead of a trackrat I would have felt fine keeping them installed until I wanted something snazzier.

I saw these pop up on Facebook a couple of weeks ago.  These are the same as the Recarro seats the BMW guys go crazy for to put into BMW 2002s and 320i from the 80s.  Only difference is the covers and the fact that if these were BMW they would be over $1000.  Oops, can't paste link.  Go to facebook Norton Mass and look up Mustang seats.

Didn't see anything similar to what you were describing, sorry. Also I think Mass is a bit far from Florida haha

I've got a pair of black plastic racing seats with padded covers and 5 point harnesses. Not adjustable, and probably not all that soft or comfy, but they are light and cheap. Never installed, got them to put into my early Bronco but upgraded to power heated Mercedes leather.
