I have a 75 Gran Torino Sport with high-back bucket seat option I'm looking for reupholster seat covers reproduction and anyone knows of any am having a very difficult time finding any, I know I can have them custom-made but if anyone knows of any company that makes them let me know, I found a company that makes bucket seat covers for a 73 Torino I don't know if they are the same size or not if anyone knows this let me know .... thanks

72-73 were the only years that high back buckets were used in the Torino. 74-76 (and later in LTD II) buckets were the low back with headrests.

See the attached link for interior options for the various year Torino's ('75 shown initially)..........

Hope this helps!

Closest I have seen for seat frames have been like the 70-73 Mustang high back buckets. Been a while but as far as seat foam goes, the 69-70 high back mustang seat foams looked awful close to the 72-73 GTS buckets.
