Slickman has one. I bet the whole seat would sell for a lot of money. I kinda like the bench setup.

Yeah, there were some Mustangs back then that had bench seats. They are rare today, and I know of no company that sells aftermarket bench seats for the early mustangs. If you can find one on Ebay or at a swap meet you are lucky.

Why are they so rare? Did Ford limit the production or was there a lack of demand for them?

The bench seat was a VERY rare option.

It has a fold down arm in the center so, when that's down it looks like buckets.. Many don't notice till they take a longer look.
ORIGINAL: Crash

I've seen the bench in the 65-66 models, but was it an option in the 67-68's?? I've never seen one.
