    It's not hamb friendly but I have a set of late model Mercedes rear seats in mine. Very similar to the t bird wrap and fit like they were made for the rear of this car

    I used leather seats from a 2000 Lincoln in my business coupe. Had to modify the back for width and height, although that was pretty easy. The seat bottom fit nice, and it still left foot room with the front seats where I want them( I'm 6'6).

    '80's Chrysler products should fit(front) but finding one may be a trick. I take a tape measure to the junkyard and start measuring but all cars I find are in the 2000's and have buckets. Bench seats are becoming a rarity.
