71 Mach 1 seat value
« on: October 24, 2020, 03:45:06 PM »
What is the retail value of the 2 front seats for a 71 Mach 1 in driver quality condition; black/gray.
I am thinking about taking them as partial trade for some 69-70 parts but don't know the value.
Thanks,
John

The seat "pans" have been known for fatigue splitting and actually rolling the sheet metal. I don't know what the market is but, I'd give up to $125 a seat IF the pans appear to be good. Just one guy's opinion. Chuck
Thanks, Chuck

Thanks Chuck.

Another question - Are the 71 seats both the same (no left and right) ?

Bottoms are the same right and left. I think the seat backs are too, but they should have the center seat back release for 1971. Eventually (1972-73) the seat backs releases were moved to the side of the seat.

Price should reflect if the seats have working seat tracks, and seat back release option.
