Finally chose these seats for the Stang. Deciding factor was leather and the cool headrest. Here are some pics. Also installing a Ron Davis radiator, Maier Racing shock tower brace, GT grille and amber lights, rear shelby light kit, and some new wheels.

At one point I almost sold it about 3 months ago, but backed out after I took it for a drive, I just couldn't let her go.

I just love the way the top of the seats look from the front and rear.

They are oem Recaro seats off a Honda S2000. The seats are not mounted yet, just placed them in there to see if I they look good. Now that I have decided they do, next comes the hard part of mounting them.

Hint............mount the seats to an aluminum or iron "channel" from Lowes or Home Depot and then mount the "channel" to the floor pans. Much easier this way.

The car and seats look great. I like the gold on green lemans stripes, kind of like a hertz car.
The steering wheel looks a little of place to me. Just my $.02, but you have the high-tech look going there and then the throw-back wood wheel. A Momo or more euro black 3-spoke would look perfect in there.

And let me know you think the rack can ship. I have a buyer for my stock parts and don't want to be stuck on jackstands.

Good one, the wheel is actually a MOMO but wood for the old school touch.
I will also be installing wood inserts on the console, gauge cluster, and glove box that match the wheel.

The rack has been dropped off, just waiting for the guys to start.

Looking good man - I lost a pair of seats last night on ebay to user error - me being the user - i forgot to log in and by the time i did they were gone. 1999 mustang seats mint... $100 shipped. I was sad -
