Title: New upholstery
Post by: Gonzobobcat on December 05, 2012, 04:01:03 PM: I called an upholstery to get a quote on fixing my 1977 Mercury Bobcat's front seats. He said my best bet would be to by a kit from Dallas Mustang. I went to the website and found some high back covers that look like they would fit.

However, when I called the store the guy said he had nothing for a Pinto.

Here is the link.... What are the chance that these would fit...with professional installation.

Thanks.....Wal ter

Only $203 a piece. :D
