  Hi Guys, my 73 Chally got Mustang bucket seats somewhere in its past and I wish to get rid of them. I found a set of 72 e body seats at the  Autofair and was wondering if I order a complete set from Legendary will the 72 skins fit the 73 rear frame.  I understand the biggest difference in the buckets, other than the skin design, is the hardbacks 7i-72 verses the softbacks of the 73-74.  Is that correct......thanks.......J

Thanks, C6pak.......thats good to know. My seat frame is looking pretty rough from the water leakage from the back glass. Looks too far gone to save.........J

I should specify that the convertible rear seat is different.   The top or back portion of the seat frame is totally different than a hardtop.  The bottom is the same seat frame but, it uses a different shaped foam to work with the top portion of the seat.  The convertible bottom comes out around 1 inch shorter on the sides when compared to the hardtop.
