Tan front seat

I need one tan front seat in good condition for my '85 TA. Let me know if you have one and how much it would be. Shipping would be to 44646.

Thanks,
Caleb

It's the driver's seat that I need. Is there a difference between the driver's and passenger's seat besides where the seat belt holster bolts on? I was thinking either one would work for replacing the driver's side one.

I took a pic of the passenger side one. I'd like it to match the style and color. Please send pics of your front seat to caz6@case.edu.

Thanks

yes the seat bottom rails where it mounts to the floor is different. I suppose you could dismount the seat slider/frame and switch them with the driver's side.

I did the same thing on my 71 buick, but its not that simple with these cars. Call it my imagination, but i could swear the driver's side is a bit more tilted back in all these cars. As well, the tilt lever is on the other side. If you do swap it, you will run into trouble fitting all that stuff between the console and the seat, you wont be able to use it. And finally, the bracket for the seatbelt (if you have it) on the headrest, is on the opposite side.

Good points. I'd probably just rather have the driver's side seat then to avoid having to make too many modifications. Also, a few people offered sets, but all the other seats are in good condition and would be a shame to get rid of them. So, I'd rather just have the single driver's seat. Another thing, it needs to be a high-back to match the passenger side seat.

I haven't come across one yet, so if you have a tan driver's seat that will match, let me know. Thanks.
