I started to reupholster my seats and found that the driver's side bucket frame and springs are rusted beyond repair. So, I'm looking for a new pair or at minimum, a driver's side frame. I'm located in Kansas City, but I'm willing to drive a few hours to pick up good serviceable parts. Thanks. ------------- 1969 Torino GT 1968 Cougar XR-7 |

There's a crusty pair from 68 (no head rest) in OH on e-Pay. https://www.ebay.com/itm/256963554371?_skw=TORINO+BUCKET+SEATS&itmmeta=01KFE05VSGJK811XK4AS9TFQ45&hash=item3bd438ac43:g:RF0AAOSwfdRoQdkN&itmprp=enc%3AAQALAAAA8O7PUuNWmJ%2B%2BUShgI9tQz%2FrjB0RyGDnRDAGV6zKg6ixOBupcVI%2FZAtFwyxko3kBFzqSHeySJYylIIEfuhYZUULVgj78LTeL5z7L4pZ%2FmDs0xdLW0AEZSzxOl1CiUCdsJEqTdzESa0%2BObjRCN%2B%2BlM%2BIsFQ8w5ie2l641HE4DoCol%2Fs%2FBCEICSGp1UEnzgGcTR0YwSFgLBEBADmBrpiDvoewjPqwnJPHdc3uyWI58HaUmvqM%2FgytoPJh8dePcGabDHyxZP3JS0quCc8bzQGzxgaDTLRXz2E0OXyxTvRUsi6zZUUdMsxFGBU1aTS%2BzPpzJHYw%3D%3D%7Ctkp%3ABFBMhL2XwPtm" rel="nofollow - Pair 1968 1969 Torino/Cyclone black bucket seats w/tracks | eBay ------------- Dave 1969 Torino GT/351W 2V/FMX/Vinyl Top/Black Jade/Gold Stripes/Nugget Gold Buckets/Console/Racing Mirrors/AC/PS/PDB |

Thanks schufitz. I saw those. Crusty is fine since I have new foam and covers, but the frames don't appear to be any better than the ones I have. I'll file those away for now and continue the search. I'm not in a rush....yet. ------------- 1969 Torino GT 1968 Cougar XR-7 |

Found a pair within driving distance (4 hours one way). They're actually out of a Cyclone. They look....better than what I have. Hope I'm not disappointed when I pick them up. ------------- 1969 Torino GT 1968 Cougar XR-7 |

Not to hijack, but if anyone has a descent set of buck seat side trim for sale, I'm interested. Thanks in advance. ------------- 1968 Torino GT F Code '96 Bronco, '39 Ford Coupe, '57 Fairlane, SOLD 2025 F150 SuperCrew, 2025 Edge Platinum |

They're from a 68. The upholstery pattern is different, but everything else appears to be the same. The main issue I see is the lack of headrests, but I'm confident I can come up with a way to adapt the Torino headrests since they're in good shape and I have new covers. ------------- 1969 Torino GT 1968 Cougar XR-7 |
