I’m looking for a set of replacement seat covers however I am having a difficult time identifying my current seats. These seats came on my 67 not sure if they are original or off of something else. I have not seat any replacement covers with the same design. Looking to recover with a set from WH, Toms or any other vendor that has replacements that will fit. TIA DF8E5FF6-564C-4611-B935-53E015C8F0D3.jpeg

Possibly recovered stock seats but I am not 100% certain. It does have a similar shape to stock.

Do they both driver and passenger seats fold towards the passenger side?

The rear seat could be a '67, but it's been totally recovered, including the armrests. Someone more knowledgeable than me can comment on the fronts.

They look right, does the other side of the passenger seat have a latch? The real early ones did not and the 67- or 68 and up should I believe. I don't remember exactly when they transitioned from locking but thought it was in 67. It looks like it has the hook in the pictures but no loop on the floor?

Yes there would be a footman loop(metal bracket) on the floor that that hooks into. So they may be later seats or the loop is missing. Someone else that knows 67's better may be able to clarify. My 67 had a bench so no help there. My 66 did not have a loop.

They should. The way those seats were covered it looks like you will need new foam too

I don't see how they could be anything but bronco/mustang seats but something seems off. Also, the rear bench cushion looks like a different shape than my 70 / 76. No telling what you will find hiding under there so you may want to take them apart before ordering replacement stuff.

looks like Bronco seats to me. use new 67 mustang seat foam when you pull the seat backs off the top back of the seat frame will have a plate with 4 small tapped holes in it its there so you coule add head rests to the seat the 70 series had the head rests I used Torino head rests they will still allow the passengers seat fold down for access to the back.

Those front seats are from a 68-77 Bronco. The passenger seat latch is looking for a footman loop style floor catch, but the 67 floorpan is not drilled to accomodate the 68+ latch.

So they are not original to your 67 Bronco. but as you can see...they fit and attach to the original holes. They are NOT Mustang seats, (although they are very close, and us similar buns and upholstery.)

You can tell the difference between 68 Mustang, and 68-77 Bronco by the location of the seat back release handle. The Bronco is about 4 inches off the floor, and the Mustang is about 12 inches off the floor. The Bronco passenger seat also has the catch lever, and there is a bracket welded to the seat pan where it sits on the floor.

As soon as you know that you have 68-77 Bronco seat frames, parts are easy to come by. You will have to decide whether to keep or delete the passenger side seat back latch if you use them in your 67. You can clone the driver's side latch, or add the footman loop, or delete both.

This has been super helpful. Now I can decide what seats covers I would like to proceed with
