Fordman - yes, it was the two seat covers, the driver's door armrest, and the driver's seat belt buckle thingy. If you could see it in your heart to include the upper seat belt holder attached to the seat (the broken thing in the pic above) it'd be much appreciated as well :D

ThunderChicken,
Man, I finally got those seats skinned!  I think it's easier tearing a motor down.  They just got hog-ring happy in a few places (4 or 5 right together).  I'm including the seat belt holder from the driver's side, and both seat belts.  And the armrest.  I'll get them to the Post Office tomorrow if at all possible.  Sorry for your wait.  Hey, if you know anybody who's looking for a TC hood, I've got a nice one for sale.  I am just unbelievably strapped for money right now, plus I decided it just wouldn't work right on my V6 car, no matter how cool it looks.  I've about run out of anything else to sell, short of the car itself, which will not happen.  It actually did about 2 years ago, when I was laid off for an extended period of time and money got scarce.  Except it was no T-bird or Cougar.  It was my '69 Mach 1 R-code Mustang (428CJ, 4-speed, Shaker scoop, F/R spoilers) that I was going to someday restore original.  But it was all I had that had of any value that I owned outright.  I still get tore up about that car.  Anyway, hope you like the seat covers, and there's no charge for the cat hair you might find on them (I tried to get them clean).  Good luck!

Thanks, Fordman... Can't wait to get 'em in :D

I would buy the hood myself, but it would cost eleven billion dollars to ship, and it probably wouldn't make the trip intact.

Sorry to hijack the thread again, but Thunder Chicken -

Could you also post some tips in getting the seat back together? (maybe as a sticky in the misc. tech category?). That would sure make my life alot easier! (Who designed these stupid seats!)

Yes, once I get the new covers in the mail I'll take pics of the reassembly process. I'll also take pics of the bottomo cushion disassembly.

Carmen (T-Chicken),
I got the covers and other various goodies in the mail last Thursday or Friday.  I sent it by air, for a 4 to 10 day delivery (kind of a long range).  I had the same thought; as fun as it was to take them apart, I bet putting them back together is way more of a hoot.  Better have a good hog-ringer. 

I don't know if BlackJack is still interested in them or not, but I seem to have 2 naked front seats in very good condition (backs not broken, etc).  They have power recline.  And, even though we spend our time talking about 'Birds and Cougars here, remember that these seats will also fit any Fox Mustang, too.  Seen any Mustangs lately with power recline front seats?  Just a thought.

Chicken, I hope you like the covers.  I think you'll be surprised at their condition.  Please let me know when they arrive.  Later!

I'm looking forward to it - if there is one thing that bothers me about my car (besides its low-po 5.0 SO engine and auto tranny), it's the ripped driver's seat. It has kept me awake at night (really).

Thanks Fordman! They look GREAT! Unfortunately the femailman left the box on the doorstep and a neighbourhood cat must've peed on it, because the whole thing smells like cat pee (I'm gonna electrify my front door and wait for that little orange  that's been hanging around and spraying everything to come back). Looks like we're gonna find out if T-Bird seat covers are machine washable :D Then it's a re-dyeing for them, and then my interior will be happy again :D

Thanks a bucketload - I and my T-Bird appreciate these parts :D :D :D
