What seats are these?
So I am going back and forth between retro-modding my '67, or keep it looking original. So to cover my bases, I want to find out what the seats are in this Mustang featured on MustangstoFear.com. Thanks in advance

I prefer the classic look and feel of the original stock interior. I have no idea what seats those are. I just think that the modern style seats look completely out of place in classics. Try emailing mustangstofear and see if they can tell you.

I agree with tx65, especially on a convertible. You drop the top and it's like "wtf is that?". I mean, it's cool and all but REALLY takes away from the original look.
If anything, get seats from a car thats only a few years older than your mustang. I know people have used '70+ model mustang seats, and theres other cars you can use the seats from. I think that's a good choice, to get seats that don't look too far off from original.

Those seats are actually from a Ferrari F430, as is the leather throughout that interior.
For a more affordable option check out the 94?+ Mustang seats. They offer great adjustablity, lumbar support, headrests for safety and they are comfortable. MTF uses those seats quite a bit and are a favorite for the shop. Even though a more modern seat doesn't appear to be classic, they do in fact fit very well and you can have them recovered to match the classic style appearance.
These are SCAT Procar seats with reworked foam that Reenmachine put in one of their builds, this is sort of what I'm refering to though, modern seat recovered to appear classic.
Give Rich Smith at Mustangs to Fear a call.. he is extremely helpful and will take good care of you.
Having said that, I do not prefer this look, that is why I will be going with the original 67 Deluxe seats. I know there is no headrest, and they may not be as comfortbale, but I think the look is worth the sacrifice.

Looks....eh....I like them just not sure how they look in our car.......BUT.....being a daily driver in Crashville NJ, where bumper to bumper traffic during the morning rush is 85mph, I like the safety aspect of them. That is the biggest concern when it comes to the original seats, how to make them as safe as possible.

NoReins are those the seats used in the console pictures from MTF? They kind of look like it, but I can't really tell from the angles.
