'71 Blue Original Seats
Hello everyone,
I have just pulled my '71's blue seats out of my car and they need a good home. The foam is "holding up" (they keep their form) but not much support in either seat. Seat backs are included and used to be blue but the last guy painted them white and one has a BB size hole in it.
Driver's Seat
The driver seat only has a small hole in the cover on the bottom right side about 1/2" in diameter but you cant really see it unless you are looking for it. The rails need to be sand blasted and lubed they are looking their age. On the back of the seat the catch for leaning the seat forward is broken off (you're welcome.. battery issues it was a long day).
Passenger Seat
This is the cover that has a little bit more wear (I don't know either). The rails in this seat don't slide so well anymore.. There's some rust in there and a blasting and lube may save them (???). The rest of the seat seems to be in pretty good order though.
I didn't see any springs broken in either seat and I am happy to say not a single rat hole! Though I didn't pull the covers off...
Asking $100 (obo) + shipping I live in El Paso, Texas if you want to pick up or meet close.
