Default Bench Seat / 4 Speed

Hi Y'all,

I just got a solid 65 coupe project today & when I broke the codes I found it was originally a bench seat, 4 speed car. It's got buckets & a 3 speed in it right now. I was planning to modify it considerably, but now I'm not so sure - This has got be a rare one. Anybody got a good bench seat they don't need?

Take Care,

i have one as well, but i'm most likely putting it back in. granted my car will not be numbers matching at all when i'm done, but i think the bench seat will just rock everyone's socks. good luck finding one, they dont really exist anymore.

i found out they came with a bench seat, i nearly soiled myself. saw it on one at englishtown and fell in love. it's a beautiful thing.



i bet you could grab up a small fortune for one of those origional bench seats.

Yup, a bench seat is rare. I have one too and you don't see them much at all.

Our '65 Fastback was also a 4-spd/bench car. I currently have buckets in the car, but still have the original bench that came with the car. No, I'm not selling it.
