That is just the upholstery not the whole seat.

Whoops. There are compleate seats on there.
Just second guessing my choice of scatt Procar mustang style seats before I put over $1000 of material and several thousand dollars of labor into them.
Just remember that if you use bucket seats from another model car like the ones you pictured, that floor
mounting brackets with that type of seat do not allow for the sloped floor in 61 to 64 Chevy’s. I had to fix 2 friends cars that used the wrong seat brackets( the seats were tipped back too much and not level)
Factory 62-64 Impala SS seat brackets and the welded to the floor brackets compensate for the sloped floor.

Did the guys from the upholstery shop take her out for a spin???
He said he took it out to test the seats. I noticed oil all over the engine. That's how I could tell. Claims he only drove it a few blocks but it was empty and I had a half a tank in it.
