Hev,   Just wondering about your BA seats.
   
How did you mount these??

Did you use the BA tracks etc and drill new mount holes through floor
                     or
did you adapt the original mustang seat tracks/runners to the BA seats so as to retain original floor mount points??

Also these would not have the quick release forward action to let people into rear seats.  How would this issue be for vic rego??  

Am thinking of new seats for my 69 convert.   CHEERS

Have a look at the VE ute seats, probably the best part of the car :+, but has the quick release fold forward.

I made up some simple adapter plates, 50 x 3 mm flat bar with offset holes and aftermarket runners, but you could use the genuine ones, I didnt cause they added another 1/2" or so to the seat height, they work a treat. I will take a pic tomorrow before I put em in, they dont have all the fancy mechanism under them though.
Just the interior and some tid up to go!
Cheers Hev

It was our pleasure Christ!
Not too far away now, I didn't count on spending 4 hrs aligning the bonnet and mudguards (hood and fenders) We got the engine idling a little smoother by adjusting the mixtures and the electrical is giving me some grief now with gremlins in the blinkers and lights, I cant put the drivers seat in yet cause its easier to get access to under the dash but its all good otherwise, I hope to make it to the all American day if its finished.
So alls left is the electrical and seats and lots of polish!
Video to come soon, I suppose a mini series is on the cards!
Cheers hev!
