    Does anybody know if these are original Maverick bucket seats? They are in my 70 Grabber parts car and even though they are not original to that car, they fit in there real nice.

    They sure look like either Maverick or Mustang Seats ... not sure if the upholster is factory though ... Do they have a hard plastic cover on the back of the seat?

    I don't think they are Grande' seats - Grande' had cloth all the way up to the top of the seat and also had 2 small metal bars for decoration, about where your shoulder blades are. I vote Pinto.

    Pintos are good cars to steal seats from, since no one should be driving them anyway...:D
