Help identifying seats?
I pulled these seats out of my '55 F100, but I'm pretty darn sure they're not stock.
I investigated getting them covered, but without knowing where they came from, I'd be forced to have custom covers made which equals $$$$.
Is there any chance anyone out there might be able to help me identify where these seats came from?
Best guess I have right now is late '60s GM.
I can get additional pictures and / or measurements if that might help.
Thanks!

I've been looking at Corvair seats thinking that was it - but maybe you're onto something. Although the seat framing looks different, the stitch pattern on these GTO Lemans seats looks spot-on.

You're right. Here's another picture I pulled from a '64 GTO, and the stitch pattern looks exact. I need to head out to the garage and take a closer look at what I have.

Me too - thanks for the help!
Here was what made me 100% convinced - looking at the underside of the seat -
