Check the Yahoo images (pictures) There is at least one I found on there at the seat looks a lot like ones I bought thru the years (albeit, quite old and wore out) Trying to duplicate it would likely cost an arm and a leg. Anyway, that's just one source. I too like to keep my interiors close to stock as I'm not into all this stuff such as bucket seats, later model seats, dolphin gauges, etc. To each their own but I'm quite religious when it comes to the dash, stock wheels, stock steering wheel, interiors, etc.

Thanks for the tip, but if I had found what I was looking for, I wouldn't have posted this thread...

I found an image of a '60, a '61, and a '64. That's it. I was hoping that some of our forum members could help out with pics. Seeing as how this is a '57-'60 section with a lot of purist type members.

I don't think there is that many original photos of the interior. When I first read your post I looked through a few old add photos I have but the one that shows the seat is far away and when reproduced is even less quality.

The one guy I can think of that may have some good info would be "transam525" He has done a lot of research as He is doing a concourse restoration, found here. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/9...struction.html

I'm not sure how often he drops by, anymore but you could possibly PM him and see if he has any info for you.

Good luck in your quest!

"Patterns" on these seats were very plain and other than colors, the offerings were very limited. Unless you are trying to go concours, the few pictures you've already seen should give you a good idea. Like hoss73ford, I prefer mostly OEM stuff, but the seats are too nondescript for me. I like an original seat with a little more comfortable upholstery. Just my 2 cents.

Maybe someone can still find pics to post.

As you can see there rather few original Pix of the original factory seat upholstery in the hands of those here.
The majority are into Modding, Hybridizing or Half-breeding their Orphan Years Trucks.
Though, Number Dummy, might have some. I do as well, but I unfortunately am unable to get to it at present.
My wife of 32 years, Nancy, was diagnosed w/ A.L.S. 18 months ago & it rampaged her rather quickly. So I spend 99.999% of my time w/ her taking care of her. As soon as I am able to look I will do so.

I have the factory Soft Trim Catalog for all 1957/68 trucks. Swing on by and take a look-see.

I don't have a pic of the 1959 interior colors, must have fallen out. Hope this helps.
